Spotted
The Brown Bullfinch is a distinctively large-headed finch with a stout bill. Its plumage is predominantly dull brown, lacking the bright colors of some other bullfinches.
Where to spot
Found in mountainous regions of the Himalayas and Southeast Asia, including India, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, China, and Vietnam. It inhabits montane forests, often near bamboo and rhododendrons.
How to spot
Scan dense forest undergrowth and canopy. Look for their characteristic stout bill. Listen for their soft, piping calls, which are often the best way to locate them.
When to spot
Visible year-round in its resident range. More active during the breeding season (spring/summer), but generally a shy and elusive bird.

Unlike many finches, bullfinches are known for their relatively soft, melancholic calls rather than loud songs.
