Adult Magellanic Snipe (Gallinago paraguaiae magellanica), a small, stocky wader. Its taxonomic position is complicated. The breeding habitat is peat bogs for magellanica. The nest is a well-hidden depression on the ground. Both parents incubate the two buff eggs for about 19 days to hatching, the precocial young leaving the nest soon after hatching. The adult Magellanic Snipe is 27-29 cm in length and weighs 110 g.
