Darwin's Nothura

Nothura darwinii

Least Concern

Darwin's Nothura is an open-country tinamou of the Andes, puna, and dry southern grasslands. It is compact and streaked, often keeping to low cover where its plumage matches the rocky, grassy terrain. Fun fact: It is one of several South American birds named for Charles Darwin's explorations.
