The Streaky Seedeater is a common, streaky brown finch with a robust bill and a relatively plain appearance. It often has subtle yellowish tones on the rump.
Where to spot
Widespread across East Africa, particularly Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania. It inhabits a variety of open and semi-open habitats, including montane grasslands, savannas, and cultivated areas.
How to spot
Look for them foraging on the ground in grassy areas or perched on low bushes/wires. Its streaky plumage provides camouflage, so look for movement. Listen for its high-pitched calls.
When to spot
Visible year-round throughout its extensive range. Often found in flocks outside the breeding season. Breeding activity varies by region, typically during the rainy season.
