The Tataupa Tinamou is a common and widespread tinamou species found in various drier habitats across South America. It is often heard more than seen, thanks to its loud, distinctive call.
Where to spot
Inhabits dry forests, Chaco, scrublands, and open woodlands across much of central and eastern South America, including Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina, and Uruguay.
How to spot
Listen for its loud, clear, three-note whistle. Observe along forest edges, dirt roads, or clearings; they may briefly walk out into the open before retreating to cover.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, but particularly vocal during dawn and dusk.
