About These Birds
Red Knot
Red Knot: 23–26 cm, robust sandpiper with brick-red breeding plumage; one of the most remarkable long-distance migrants, travelling up to 15,000 km between Arctic breeding grounds and South American or Australian wintering shores. NT. Threatened by horseshoe crab egg depletion at Delaware Bay staging sites. Key refuelling stops critical.
Puna Snipe
Puna Snipe: 26–28 cm, medium snipe of high Andean wetlands and boggy grassland from Peru south to northwestern Argentina and Chile at 3,000–5,000 m. Cryptic streaked brown plumage. Probes soft ground for worms and invertebrates. Sedentary high-altitude resident. Displays with tail-fanning 'drumming' flight over bogs.
