The Yellow-browed Sparrow is a distinctive sparrow found in open habitats of South America. It is characterized by a prominent yellow supercilium (eyebrow) and streaky underparts.
Where to spot
Found in open habitats, especially grasslands and savannas, often near water, across parts of northern and central South America (Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina).
How to spot
Look for it foraging on the ground or perched on low vegetation. The prominent yellow eyebrow is its most striking identification feature. Listen for its simple, repetitive song.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active and vocal during the breeding season, which varies by region.
