Media notes
Noble Snipe flying. More images from Ecuador and Peru at www.pbase.com/ahlman There is a breeding population here at 2000 m altitude. Recordings by me available at www.xeno-canto.org. These were long thought to be South American Snipes and two nests had been monitored. I was shown them in january 2012 and immediately saw that they were NOT that species. the date of this photo I documented that they were in fact Noble Snipes, here at unusually low altitude and breeding in cattle pastures. Elevation: 2197 m. Date added to IBC: March 9, 2017.
