The Bright-rumped Yellow Finch is a vibrant species of the high Andes, characterized by its intensely yellow rump, which often appears brighter than the rest of its plumage.

How to spot
Look for its bright yellow rump, especially noticeable when perched or in flight. It often forages on the ground. Listen for its distinctive chirping calls within flocks.
