True to its name, the female is remarkably pale and inconspicuous, blending almost perfectly into the sandy landscape. It proved surprisingly difficult to detect, even when nearby. In the end, we learned that the heavy daytime visitor traffic at Longyang Gorge tends to push the birds away from the main roads, making the early morning by far the best time to search for this elusive species. With the Pale Rosefinch finally in hand, our Qinghai Grand Loop came to a perfect conclusion. https://www.chinabirding.com/trip-reports/zn2fm3kzdp7ueibsmn4wp4qecj9b0f monthly 0.5 2026-06-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a0b351217df6d2556c03cbd/32ba10a2-2166-498e-a0d4-44983a81a245/DSC00937-%E5%B7%B2%E5%A2%9E%E5%BC%BA-NR.jpg Trip Reports - Western Sichuan, 2024/05 - Make it stand out Gray-hooded Parrotbill (Suthora zappeyi) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a0b351217df6d2556c03cbd/c6c5c909-1e0c-4ef9-8771-2500922cb803/9ab903f8995fcf37936f5f856962f22.jpg Trip Reports - Western Sichuan, 2024/05 - Make it stand out From the summit of Wawushan, the dramatic edge of the tabletop mountain emerges above an endless sea of clouds. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a0b351217df6d2556c03cbd/bc61573c-60af-4eb1-89f6-b6432e6a78bc/%E6%8B%BC%E5%9B%BE3.jpg Trip Reports - Western Sichuan, 2024/05 - Make it stand out From left to right: Great Parrotbill (Paradoxornis aemodius), Brown Parrotbill (Paradoxornis unicolor), Gray-hooded Parrotbill (Suthora zappeyi), Fulvous Parrotbill (Suthora fulvifrons), and Three-toed Parrotbill (Paradoxornis paradoxus) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a0b351217df6d2556c03cbd/afd63b57-7f60-4a28-9e57-3f3fc333f57e/DSC09700-%E5%B7%B2%E5%A2%9E%E5%BC%BA-NR.jpg Trip Reports - Western Sichuan, 2024/05 - Make it stand out Himalayan Shortwing (Brachypteryx cruralis) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a0b351217df6d2556c03cbd/b6dd43cb-a856-4f3e-87d0-f31b969d3570/DSC09873-%E5%B7%B2%E5%A2%9E%E5%BC%BA-NR.jpg Trip Reports - Western Sichuan, 2024/05 Emei Shan Liocichla (Liocichla omeiensis) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a0b351217df6d2556c03cbd/e06e6e2b-cf12-44b9-84e0-30cf38b2e3c3/DSC09618_DxO.jpg Trip Reports - Western Sichuan, 2024/05 Red Panda (Ailurus fulgens) is one of the highlights of Wawushan.
