Orange-fronted yellow finch

The orange-fronted yellow finch is a species of South American bird in the family Thraupidae. It has a highly disjunct distribution with ''S. c. columbiana'' found in Colombia and Venezuela, ''S. c. goeldii'' along the Amazon River in Brazil, and ''S. c. goeldii'' in east-central Brazil. It is found in semi-open areas, typically near water and sometimes near humans. The male closely resembles the saffron finch, but it is smaller, has a more contrasting orange front, and dusky lores. The female is overall olive-gray with whitish underparts, and yellow to the wings and tail.
