The scarlet finch, with its fabulous ruby-red color, is a star for many bird watchers. Males are uniformly scarlet, except on their short tails and short wings, while females have yellow-olive upperparts and bright yellow rumps. These birds prefer to inhabit higher grounds.
In the Baihualing scenic area of Baoshan, Yunnan Province, a group of these charming birds was recently spotted. Having an ideal habitat there, they are often seen flitting among the trees, creating a delight for birdwatchers.
