Spotted
The Double-collared Seedeater is a very common and widespread species, characterized by the male's two distinct black chest bands and white throat.
Where to spot
Widespread across open and semi-open habitats in central and eastern South America, including Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Argentina. Common in gardens, parks, and grasslands, generally below 1,500 meters.
How to spot
Look for the male's distinctive double black collar. It often forages on the ground, sometimes in large mixed flocks. Listen for its high-pitched, buzzy song, which is a common sound in its habitat.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Males are highly vocal and conspicuous during the breeding season, making them easily observable.
