Spotted
The Afghan Snowfinch is a range-restricted snowfinch species found in the high mountains of Afghanistan and adjacent regions. It is a robust bird adapted to harsh alpine conditions.
Where to spot
High-altitude mountain ranges of Afghanistan and possibly adjacent Pakistan. Inhabits rocky alpine and subalpine habitats, usually above the tree line.
How to spot
Similar in appearance to other snowfinches, look for it on rocky ground. Distinguishing it from White-winged Snowfinch may require careful observation of subtle plumage differences.
When to spot
Year-round resident in its high-altitude range. Observation can be challenging due to the remote nature of its habitat.
This species is relatively poorly known compared to other snowfinches due to its restricted and often politically unstable habitat.
