Montifringilla nivalis

A high-mountain bird, which is therefore only found in the Pyrenees and, more specifically, in the Val d'Aran and in adjacent local districts. It is listed as one of the ten species in most serious danger of extinction in the world, as a result of climate change. The Catalan population is already considered residual, with only around 20-25 mating couples in the southern part of the area.
