Deep in the Kumrat Valley, where the road ends at Dojanga, the wilderness truly begins. During my trip in July 2025, I was lucky enough to spot this beautiful male Yellow-breasted Greenfinch (Himalayan Greenfinch) foraging in the high-altitude meadows.<br /><br />About this Bird: The Yellow-breasted Greenfinch (Chloris spinoides) is a stunning songbird native to the Himalayas. Unlike the common greenfinch, it sports a striking high-contrast "bandit mask" and vibrant yellow wing bars. In summer, they migrate up to 8,000+ feet to breed in cool pine forests like those found here in Upper Dir.<br /><br />📍 Location: Dojanga, Kumrat Valley, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. 🗓️ Date: July 2025<br /><br />In this video: 0:00 - Arrival at Dojanga (The majestic pine forest) 0:30 - Spotting the Greenfinch 0:45 - Close up: The yellow wing bars 1:10 - The sounds of Kumrat Valley<br /><br />🌿 Protecting Our Wildlife: Kumrat is a treasure.
