Title
Notes on nest and breeding of Afghan Snowfinch Pyrgilauda theresae, Bamiyan province, Afghanistan
Author(s)
Busuttil, S., R. Aye and C.C. Shank
Abstract
The Sandgrouse journal article available through subscription at this link discusses the discovery of Afghan Snowfinch nests in 2008 while WCS were conducting surveys around Band-e-Amir in Bamyan Province. As described back in the 60s, this endemic species constructs nests under the ground within existing burrows - behaviour that was witnessed by the two researchers on this trip.
