About These Birds
Black-masked Finch
The Black-masked Finch is a vulnerable, small grassland finch with a gray body, black facial mask, chestnut wings, and a white supercilium. It inhabits native cerrado grasslands and campo sujo scrub of Brazil and adjacent Bolivia and Paraguay, requiring native grass cover that is rapidly being lost to agriculture. It feeds on grass seeds found in sparse, open grassland, foraging close to the ground.
Azure-shouldered Tanager
The Azure-shouldered Tanager is a tanager endemic to the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil, weighing about 43g with a wingspan of 19.2cm. It has green plumage with striking azure-blue shoulder patches and forages in the forest canopy and edges. It feeds on fruit, nectar, and insects, often in mixed-species flocks.
