The South American or Magellan Snipe (Gallinago paraguaiae) is a small, stocky shorebird with a complex taxonomic status. As it currently is placed, it breeds in most of South America and the Falkland Islands. It may be conspecific with the widespread Common Snipe (G. gallinago), which is widespread throughout Europe and Asia. The very similar Wilson’s Snipe (G. delicata) of North America is now considered a separate species. In any case, the subspecies in southern Chile, Argentina, and the Falkland Islands breeds in wet grassy and boggy areas. It uses its long bill to probe in mud for earthworms and insects.

20 august 2024, Yutz, Thionville Portes de France, Moselle, Lorraine, Grand Est, France. It's summer. On the bank of a pond, close-up of a Common Snipe that has stopped in front of the camera lens. The small wader is in profile, standing straight on its long legs. Its plumage, lighter on the underside, is mainly composed of brown and black shades with fine patterns, and partly striped. This is perhaps the most complex plumage pattern of our birds. And it is the snipe that has the longest beak, in proportion to its body.
