Spotted
The Campo Ground-Dove is a distinctively long-tailed ground-dove endemic to eastern Brazil. It has a relatively plain plumage, primarily grey-brown, with subtle wing markings and a long, graduated tail.
Where to spot
Endemic to a specific region of eastern Brazil, primarily in the Cerrado and Caatinga biomes. Inhabits open savannas, grasslands, and dry scrublands.
How to spot
Look for its distinctly long tail, which is a key identification feature compared to shorter-tailed ground doves. It typically forages on the ground in open, grassy areas. Its call is a soft, low cooing.
When to spot
Year-round resident within its Brazilian range. Most active during the day, foraging on the ground.

Its unusually long, graduated tail differentiates it from most other species within the broader ground dove group, hinting at a distinct evolutionary path within its specialized habitat.
