The Ochre-breasted Pipit is a rare and localized pipit species found in scattered populations across parts of South America. It is characterized by its distinctive ochre-colored breast.

South America, with fragmented populations in Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. Found in moist grasslands, often with scattered shrubs or open woodlands.
How to spot
