Feeding Habits
Golden-naped Finch consumes seeds, buds, berries, and insects. It forages discreetly on the ground and in dense vegetation, sometimes in groups, often joining mixed-species flocks post-breeding. It exhibits a preference for forest fringes and undergrowth.
Habitat
The golden-naped Finch typically inhabits areas with dense undergrowth, predominantly in submontane oak and rhododendron forests, including rhododendron thickets and scrub within mixed deciduous terrains. This species also frequents environments with ringal bamboo and patches of scrub, as well as nettles. During the non-breeding season, the golden-naped Finch can be found in similar habitats but at lower altitudes.
