Magellanic Snipe: Gallinago magellanica magellanica

Magellanic snipe

"Snipe are common in heath and grassland throughout the Falklands, but they are very secretive and easily overlooked.

The Snipe's usual response to danger is to remain still, their excellent camouflage making them very hard to spot amongst vegetation."
