Magellanic Penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) and burrow

The Southern Lapwing, also called the Queltehue or Tero (Vanellus chilensis) is another common resident, as are the Magellanic Oystercatcher or Pilpilén austral (Haematopus leucopodus) and the South American Snipe (Gallinago paraguaiae). Two gulls are found in the national park, the Kelp Gull (Larus dominicanus) and the Brown-hooded Gull (Larus maculipennis).

Woodpeckers include the Magellanic Woodpecker or Carpintero negro (Campephilus magellanicus), a large and truly magnificent-looking bird, black-bodied with a white ‘v’-shaped marking on its back and, in the case of the male, a brilliant red head; and the smaller Striped Woodpecker or Carpinterito chico (Picoides lignarius). The Chilean Flicker or Pitío (Colaptes pitius) is fairly common in the park. The Green-backed Firecrown (Sephanoides sephanoides), a member of the hummingbird family, is sometimes seen in the Valle Francés.

Other common species include the Rufous-collared Sparrow or Chincol (Zonotrichia capensis), the Austral Blackbird or Tordo (Curaeus curaeus), the Patagonian Sierra-Finch (Phrygilus patagonicus) and the Grey-hooded Sierra Finch (Phrygilus gayi).
