Pink-browed Rosefinch (Carpodacus rodochroa)

About the Pink-browed Rosefinch
The pink-browed rosefinch (Carpodacus rodochroa) is a finch in the family Fringillidae. Nicholas Aylward Vigors first described the species in 1831. It is migratory and ranges across the northern regions of the Indian subcontinent, mainly in the Himalayas. It is found in Bhutan, Tibet, India, Nepal, and Pakistan. Its natural habitats are boreal forests, shrub-lands, grasslands, and dry forests. The male is bright raspberry pink with a "browed" facial pattern and faint streaking on the back. The females are brown with streaked buffy underparts, broad white eyebrows, and lightly streaked pale cheeks and throat. Having a stable population trend, the pink-browed Rosefinch is in no danger of extinction.
