White-bellied Nothura

Nothura boraquira

Least Concern

The White-bellied Nothura is a small tinamou of dry grasslands, savannas, and open scrub in central South America. Its pale belly and finely patterned upperparts help it blend with dry vegetation and bare soil. Fun fact: Nothuras often freeze low to the ground before flushing suddenly at close range.
