Sinai Rosefinch

Carpodacus synoicus

The Sinai rosefinch, a member of the finch family Fringillidae, is a bird that graces the Middle East with its presence. This species, Carpodacus synoicus, is particularly noted for its affinity to the arid landscapes of the Sinai Peninsula and the Negev region.

Identification Tips

Observers should look for the characteristic pale rose coloration that adorns these birds. The males, in particular, showcase this hue more prominently, which serves as a delightful contrast against the sandy backdrops of their natural habitat.

Habitat

The Sinai rosefinch is well-adapted to life in hot deserts, where it has made a home for itself. The harsh conditions of these environments do little to deter this hardy species.

Distribution

One can find the Sinai rosefinch within the confines of Egypt, Israel, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. Its range is a testament to its resilience and ability to thrive in some of the Middle East's most challenging terrains.

Conservation status

BirdLife International has assessed the Sinai rosefinch as being of Least Concern. This status reflects the bird's stable population and the absence of significant threats that could jeopardize its survival at present.

The Sinai rosefinch, with its subtle beauty and desert-dwelling ways, is not only a bird of scientific interest but also a symbol of national pride, as it is the national bird of Jordan.

Fun way to add to your birdwatching experience
I enjoy watching birds in my backyard, but this app helped me really pay attention while on vacation this summer. It was fun to add new birds to my bird watching app.

Great bird recording
For a while I’ve been trying to find an app to easily record bird lists and day out and struggled to find one that I like. Birda is great for this, straightforward and a great community!

Just what birding needs
We need more fun in birding, for years it has had a reputation for being up tight and stuffy and only perused by retirees and anoraks. Birda helps change that perception and firmly brings birding into the 21st century! Fun, interactive while still contributing to science and conservation. If you aren’t on it, why not??

Terrific App for Birders
Downloaded Birda around the time my interest in birding was sparked, and it has been a terrific app to help me (1) share my experience, (2) document my sightings, and (3) learn more about birds in general. That said, I also believe Birda is a fantastic app for birders of all experience levels. Great community!

Great app
I use this app all the time as it’s quick and easy to log individual sightings or whole birding sessions. It’s an excellent way to meet new people and the forum is full of really friendly people. The challenges are a great way to get involved and learn more about birds. Cannot recommend it enough!
