I think Munias are a type of finch and elsewhere I have posted on a Spice Finch which is also known as a Scaly Breasted Munia. The huge bill makes them look to me a bit like Bullfinches or Hawfinches back home. They cleary like bigger seeds. As far as little tracks go that track down from Ellertons lodge to the river in teh valley below must have thrown up 30 or more life ticks. You can addicted to flying to new countries just to go for a stroll !
