Molting is an important process of birds’ natural history and learning about molt and plumage allows a better understanding of various aspects of birds’ life. In temperate zones, knowledge about molt strategy, type of plumage characteristics and their association with age are well documented. In contrast, knowledge about molt in Neotropical birds is not well developed. One species with numerous studies regarding molt in several localities is the widely-distributed Rufous-collared Sparrow (Zonotrichia capensis). These studies covered various localities along the species range, facilitating comparisons among populations, and providing an excellent model for the study of plumage and molt variation. In this study, I described both molt strategy...
