Noble Snipe

Gallinago nobilis

Least Concern

The Noble Snipe is a shorebird of the Andes and adjacent South American highlands. It uses its bill, legs, and alert flight to feed on invertebrates, seeds, or small aquatic prey along coasts, mudflats, rivers, lakes, grasslands, or open ground; many shorebirds make impressive seasonal movements between breeding and non-breeding areas.
