Spotted
The Brown-and-yellow Marshbird is a medium-sized Icterid characterized by its dark olive-brown upperparts and bright yellow underparts, with a distinctive dark mask.
Where to spot
Endemic to the wetlands and grasslands of southeastern South America, including southern Brazil, Uruguay, and northeastern Argentina.
How to spot
Look for them in marshes, wet grasslands, and rice fields, often perching on tall reeds or foraging near the water's edge. Their loud, somewhat harsh calls can alert you to their presence.
When to spot
Present year-round in its native habitat. Breeding season in the Southern Hemisphere spring and summer offers good observation opportunities.

Unlike many of its Icterid relatives, this species has a relatively short tail and a more compact body, giving it a somewhat stout appearance among marsh-dwelling birds.
