NT. Threatened by horseshoe crab egg depletion at Delaware Bay staging sites. Key refuelling stops critical.

Giant Snipe

Resident in swampy grassland and marshy terrain of Venezuela, Trinidad, Colombia, Brazil, and adjacent South America. Feeds on invertebrates by deep probing. Secretive and crepuscular. Poorly known.
