The second-winter male has reddish-brown upperparts with a little pale pink but heavy dark streaks on underparts.

[4] The pink-browed Rosefinch is a bird species in various habitats, including forests, shrublands, grasslands, and artificial/terrestrial environments.

[4] Its range spans South and East Asia, specifically  Bhutan, China, India, Nepal, and Pakistan.

[3] Classified as of least concern regarding extinction risk, this species undergoes a short-distance animal migration, moving seasonally between lower and higher altitudes.

The female builds the nest from twigs, dry plant stems, fibers and grass, birch, moss, and animal hair.

There are roughly 4–5 eggs that are turquoise-blue, unspotted, lightly spotted, or lined with black or reddish-brown and are incubated by the female.

The calls include loud "per-lee" or "chew-wee" and a "sweet" sound similar to that of Serinus canaria, also known as an Atlantic canary.
