Abstract: The birds play a vital role in the environment and in human life, contributing to insect control, seed dispersal and pollination. These vertebrates, characterized by the presence of feathers, feed on insects and other small animals, fruits or seeds, or have a mixed diet. This study, carried out from October 2023 to September 2024, aimed to survey bird species in a rural area of the municipality of Rolante, Sítio Zambelli (29º37'20.80''S, 50º34'21.19''W), establishing species richness, as well as their seasonality (monthly occurrences), given the lack of studies on birdlife in the region. The area presents a significant diversity of birdlife, with a total sampling effort of 35 hours of observations, 100 species were recorded, distributed in 35 families, which corresponds to approximately 15% of the species cataloged for Rio Grande do Sul.
