Reichard's Seedeater is a relatively small and inconspicuous seedeater, with an olive-green back and yellowish underparts, particularly on the throat.
Where to spot
Found in East Africa, particularly Tanzania and Malawi. It inhabits montane grasslands, open woodlands, and forest edges.
How to spot
Scan the undergrowth and lower canopy of montane forests or grasslands. Its small size and quiet nature can make it elusive. Listen for its soft calls.
When to spot
Visible year-round in its resident range. Most active during the breeding season, which is typically tied to the rainy season.
