Brushland Tinamou

Nothoprocta cinerascens

Least Concern

The Brushland Tinamou is a dry-country species of thorn scrub, open woodland, and brushy grasslands in Argentina and neighboring regions. Its muted brown plumage helps it vanish into low vegetation and dusty ground. Fun fact: Many tinamous are strong runners but reluctant fliers, saving flight for last-second escapes.
