Spotted
The Vinaceous Rosefinch is a small, rather robust finch, with males sporting a deep wine-red plumage. Females are duller, typically brownish with streaking.
Where to spot
Distributed across East Asia, including parts of China, Korea, and Japan. It favors open woodlands, bamboo groves, and shrubland, often near human habitation in some areas.
How to spot
Look for them in mixed forests or scrubby areas. Listen for their clear, whistling song. They often feed on seeds and buds, so watch for movement in low vegetation.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round in its resident range. Activity peaks during the breeding season (spring/summer) when males are vocal and visible.

Unlike some other rosefinches that prefer very high altitudes, the Vinaceous Rosefinch is often found at lower to mid-elevations, making it slightly more accessible in its range.
