Small-billed Tinamou

Crypturellus parvirostris

Least Concern

The Small-billed Tinamou is an open-country tinamou of Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, and nearby Argentina. It inhabits cerrado, grassland, and lightly wooded country, where its compact body and subtle markings blend with dry vegetation. Fun fact: Its short bill suits a diet of seeds, fruits, and small invertebrates picked from the ground.
