The Green-winged Saltator is a vibrant and common songbird found across central and eastern South America. It is characterized by its bright olive-green upperparts, a prominent white supercilium, and a generally robust build, making it a conspicuous sight.
Where to spot
Found in central and eastern South America, including southeastern Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and northeastern Argentina. Inhabits forest edges, second growth, parks, gardens, and agricultural areas.
How to spot
Look for its bright olive-green upperparts, grey head, and strong white supercilium. Listen for its loud, clear, whistled song, often a repeated 'swee-swee-sweet' or similar phrase. Often seen in pairs foraging in the mid-story of trees.
When to spot
Active year-round. Most vocal during the breeding season (typically September to February) and during early morning.

This species is a frequent visitor to fruit feeders and gardens, adapting well to human-modified landscapes and becoming a familiar sound with its rich, whistling song.
