	African Silverbill - Lonchura cantans
		The head and back are a yellowish brown, while the rump and upper tail coverts are fl; the rest of the tail is flish brown as are the wings (which have barring on the secondary wing feathers); the breast, sides, and belly are a pale yellow brown; the beak and eyelids are silver.
		Note: the Indian Silverbill (Lonchura malabarica, also known as the Common Silverbill, White-rumped Silverbill, White throated Munia, or White-throated Silverbill) looks nearly identical to the African Silverbill, but its rump is white instead of fl and it lacks the barring on its secondaries.
		Interestingly, when building their own nest, some silverbills will make the entrance hole face a wall or the back of their nest box so that it is not as easily accessible.

		In his article, Mahabir notes that though domesticated cattle was first brought to the Americas by Columbus on his second voyage, the Zebu cattle (Bos indicus) was brought to the West Indies by the British in the 1860s.
		In 1905 and 1908 during Indentureship, 30 Jafarabadi Indian water buffaloes ("bhaisa") were brought to Trinidad in the Tacarigua sugar estate to replace the cattle herds (Zebu and Brahman breeds) which were infected with tuberculosis.
		Mahabir research also shows that in 1872, Indian goats were bought from vessels to England, and about the same time, they were brought to the West Indies to be milked for the children of immigrant labourers on the ships.

	Diary - View Single Post - Silverbill in Hawaii... "African" or "Indian"?
		I know that African Silverbill is included in the 2005 Tax list.
		The species (Lonchura cantans) is listed as a Hawaiian species on the most recent AOU and Hawaiian checklists that I have found on the intenet, but I can't get it to show up as an available entry in BD unless I select "World" as a location filter.
		I understand that African and Indian Silverbills were recently split from Warbling Silverbill, but I believe that the general consensus is that the species found in Hawaii is African Silverbill, not Indian Silverbill.
