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.
Latham's Snipe
Latham's Snipe: 29–33 cm, large robustly built Japanese snipe that breeds in wet grassland and marshes of central Honshu; migrates to wet grassland and irrigated paddocks of eastern Australia. NT. One of Australia's few regular Japanese migrants. Probes soft ground for invertebrates. Declining due to grassland loss at both ends of migration.
