The Yellow-striped Brushfinch is a vibrant bird of the Andes, characterized by its prominent yellow stripe above the eye and olive-green body. It is a secretive inhabitant of humid montane forests.
Where to spot
Found in the Andes of southern Peru and Bolivia. It inhabits humid montane forests, cloud forests, and dense secondary growth, particularly in bamboo thickets at mid to high elevations.
How to spot
Look for its bold yellow supercilium, black eye-stripe, and olive-green body. It typically forages low in dense vegetation, often on the ground. Listen for its clear, whistled song, often a series of repeated notes.
When to spot
Resident year-round within its range. Most active in the early morning and late afternoon.
