Description
The pale rosefinch (Carpodacus stoliczkae) is a species of finch in the family Fringillidae. It is found in Afghanistan and China. It was formerly considered conspecific with the Sinai rosefinch. Its natural habitat is hot deserts.
Feeding Habits
Pale Rosefinch's diet is mainly seeds. Pale Rosefinch typically forages on the ground, sometimes in bushes, both alone and in pairs. After breeding, pale Rosefinch may form groups up to 25, likely familial, and join larger flocks of 100+ during non-breeding seasons.
Habitat
Pale Rosefinch typically resides in arid mountains and semi-desert regions characterized by hillside and valley scrub. These birds are often found on the peripheries of cultivated areas and near sources of water, such as streams or springs, within their broader habitat range.
