Tyto finch (SciiFii)

The tyto finch (Allostizoptera tyto) is a species of small songbird of the New World warbler family, despite its name or appearance, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, and scrublands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The tyto finch is named due to the dark ring of feathers around it's white face, which is reminiscent of those of owls of the Tyto genus. The tyto finch feeds primarily on seeds from many grasses and herbs. It may occasionally take insects and their larvae during the breeding season. This species feeds mainly on the ground, sometimes jumping up to reach the seeds on the stem.. The tyto finch is granivorous and highly gregarious. Nests are built in grass, bushes or low trees, with four to six eggs laid per clutch. The call is a soft tet or a louder peew, and the song is a soft fluting, which is somewhat like the Australian zebra finch. The conservation status of the tyto finch is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the tyto finch's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
