Koli Yellow Canary

Crithagra koliensis

The Koli Yellow Canary (Crithagra koliensis) is a small passerine bird native to the Koli region of Kenya. It is characterized by its bright yellow plumage, with a distinctive greenish tinge on the wings and tail. These canaries are often found in open woodlands, savannas, and grasslands, where they forage for seeds and small insects. They are known for their melodious song and are popular as cage birds due to their vibrant coloration and pleasant vocalizations. The Koli Yellow Canary is not currently considered to be at risk, but habitat loss and capture for the pet trade could pose future threats to its population.
