Spotted
The Arabian Golden Sparrow is a vibrant sparrow species endemic to the Arabian Peninsula, closely related to the Sudan Golden Sparrow. Males boast stunning golden-yellow plumage.
Where to spot
Endemic to the southwestern Arabian Peninsula, primarily Saudi Arabia and Yemen. Found in arid acacia woodlands, wadis, and cultivated areas, often near water.
How to spot
Identify males by their intense golden-yellow coloration. Look for them in flocks, often near water sources or in acacia trees. Their bright plumage makes them relatively easy to spot.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most conspicuous during the breeding season (spring/summer) when males are in full breeding plumage and more vocal.

While males are a brilliant golden, females and non-breeding males are much duller, demonstrating a significant sexual and seasonal dimorphism.
