About These Birds
Curve-billed Tinamou
A small compact tinamou with a notably long decurved bill, brown-streaked plumage, and pale underparts. Found in high Andean grasslands in Ecuador and Peru. The curved bill is adapted to probing soil for invertebrates and tubers in puna habitats.
Huayco Tinamou
A large tinamou with spotted brown-and-buff plumage, closely related to the Red-winged Tinamou. Found on Andean slopes and high-altitude grasslands in Bolivia and Peru. Less studied than its relative; inhabits dry puna scrub and rocky slopes.
