The Eastern Streaky Seedeater is a small, streaky brown finch with a robust bill, similar to other seedeaters but found in a specific eastern range.
Where to spot
Found in East Africa, particularly Kenya and Tanzania. It inhabits montane grasslands and open woodlands.
How to spot
Scan open, grassy montane areas. Look for them foraging on the ground or in low bushes. Their streaky plumage helps them blend in, so look for movement.
When to spot
Visible year-round in its resident range. Most active during the breeding season, which is typically tied to the rainy season.
