Distribution and Habitat
The Black Rosy Finch's breeding habitat is mountain areas above the tree-line, amongst alpine rocks and cliffs. Because of this it is one of the least studied birds in North America. Its distribution range is between that of the Gray-crowned Rosy Finch (L. tephrocotis), which is located to north and west, and the Brown-capped Rosy Finch (L. australis), which is located to the south and east.
