Small-billed Tinamou

Pousada Aguape, Mato Grasso do Sul; Brazil

I actually saw 3 species of Tinamous on this trip, and 2 of them fairly well. We had a glimpse of Tatuapa Tinamou at REGUA, and this and Undulated at Pousada Aguape. We also heard Brown at REGUA.

This small Tinamou was calling from a dense roadside thicket, as we searched for it from the back of our safari style truck. A couple of times I saw the distinct black and white on the lower flanks, but never got a shot of them. But, I was amazed to get any remotely clear shots.
