Grassland birds are a diverse group of avian species that inhabit open, grassy areas such as prairies, savannas, and meadows. These birds rely on the grassland ecosystem for food, nesting, and shelter. Common examples include the Eastern Meadowlark, Bobolink, and Savannah Sparrow. They often feed on seeds, insects, and other small invertebrates found in their habitat. Grassland birds are important indicators of ecosystem health, as their populations can reflect changes in land use and environmental conditions. Many species are experiencing declines due to habitat loss from agriculture and urban development. Conservation efforts aim to protect and restore grassland habitats to support these birds and maintain biodiversity.
