Jameson's Snipe (Gallinago jamesoni)
About the Jameson's Snipe
Jameson's snipe (Gallinago jamesoni or Chubbia jamesoni) or the Andean snipe, is a small, stocky wader. It breeds in the Andes in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela. It appears to be entirely sedentary, with no evidence of migration. It is sometimes considered conspecific with the Fuegian snipe, Gallinago stricklandii, which is also known as the Cordilleran snipe. The scientific name of the Jameson's snipe commemorates the Scottish botanist William Jameson.
