Spotted
The Nicaraguan Seed Finch is a robust, dark-plumaged seedeater with a thick bill, restricted to specific wetland habitats in Central America.
Where to spot
Restricted to marshes and wet grasslands in Nicaragua and Costa Rica, generally below 500 meters.
How to spot
Requires patience, as it is very secretive. Focus on dense marsh vegetation. Listen for its deep, resonant song, which is often the only way to detect its presence without a visual.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed in the early mornings, often at the edges of reedbeds, when it might be more active.
This species is particularly shy and often stays hidden within dense reedbeds and tall marsh vegetation, making it a challenging bird to observe clearly in the wild.
