Spotted
The Fuegian Snipe is a robust snipe found in the southern regions of South America, particularly Tierra del Fuego. It inhabits wet grasslands and bogs.
Where to spot
Wet grasslands, bogs, and marshy areas in Tierra del Fuego and other southern parts of Chile and Argentina.
How to spot
Scan wet, grassy areas and bogs. Its cryptic plumage makes it hard to spot until it flushes. Listen for its characteristic flight call if disturbed.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round in its southern range. Most active during daylight hours, though it can be secretive.

This snipe is well-adapted to the cold and wet conditions of its subantarctic habitat, often found in dense vegetation where it forages for invertebrates.
