Visual System Alterations in White Zebra Finches
Brain, Behavior and Evolution, 2008Visual system anomalies in albino mammals are generally seen to be caused by a lack of retinal pigment and misrouting of retinofugal optic fibers. This study shows that the central visual system of white zebra finches is physiologically different from normally colored (wild type) birds, although the eye pigmentation and the retinofugal projection ...

Song Learning in Bengalese Finches: a Comparison with Zebra Finches
Ethology, 1987AbstractMale Bengalese finches, Lonchura striata var. domestica, learn their song from an adult male conspecific with whom they can interact at 35 to 70 days of age and normally‐raised males fail to reproduce song which they have only heard before or after this time.
