About These Birds
Black-bellied Seedeater
The Black-bellied Seedeater is a Near Threatened small finch restricted to grasslands and marshes in southern Brazil, with the male showing a white face and breast contrasting with a black belly and back. Habitat loss due to conversion of Atlantic Forest grasslands to agriculture has significantly reduced its range and numbers. It feeds on grass seeds, particularly in dense wet grasslands.
