Feeding Habits
Long-tailed Cinclodes primarily consumes arthropods and other invertebrates, gleaning them from the ground, grass, and water’s edge. They forage alone or in pairs, skillfully extracting prey from crevices, lichens, mosses, and grasses, often in quartzite outcrops or open fields.
Habitat
The long-tailed Cinclodes typically resides in southern temperate grasslands, amid pastures and agricultural regions. Favoring open and rocky terrains, it often stays close to water and human habitations. The habitat sees moist conditions, influenced by oceanic air and frequent mist on high hills. Additionally, it dwells in montane savanna ecosystems, or campos rupestres, with distinct local flora. Though largely found at higher elevations, solitary instances occur at lower levels near sparse settlements.
