Found throughout Pakistan, the Pale Rock Sparrow inhabits rocky areas, including mountain slopes, cliffs, and arid regions. It is commonly spotted in the northern and western regions of the country, including Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Punjab.
Pale Rock Sparrows are social birds often found in small flocks, especially during the non-breeding season. They feed primarily on seeds, grains, and insects, foraging on the ground or among rocks. Their breeding behavior includes nesting in rock crevices or cavities, where they construct cup-shaped nests using grass, twigs, and feathers. During the breeding season, males may engage in territorial displays, including singing and chasing intruders.
