Where to spot
Found in the high Andes of Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina, typically in rocky areas, puna grasslands, and semi-arid scrub at high elevations.
How to spot

When to spot
Active year-round. Best observed during the warmer parts of the day when it's actively foraging.

The white throat patch serves as a clear visual cue, especially when the bird is vocalizing or displaying, making it easier to identify in its rugged habitat.
