Otras aves de estos ambientes, que son frecuentes de observar son el Martín pescador, Ceryle torquata, los churretes, Cinclodes spp.
Las aves terrestres habitan principalmente asociadas al bosque que se desarrolla en quebradas y costas poco expuestas al viento; destacan el carpintero negro, Campephilus magellanicus, el comesebo grande, Pygarrhichas albogularis, el fío fío, Elaenia albiceps, que migra desde la Amazonía, donde pasa el invierno, y varias otras especies pequeñas, como el cachudito, Anairetes parulus, el diucón, Xomlis pyrope, el jilguero, Carduelis barbata, el cometocno, Phrygilus gayi, entre varias otras. Junto a esteros y pequeños cursos de agua, es posible de observar al churrín del sur, Scytalopus magellanicus y en pastizales húmedos, a la becasina, Gallinago paraguaise. Entre las aves rapaces, el condor, Vultur gryphus, es posible de observar volando o asociado a las colonias de lobos marinos, y en el bosque habitan el tiuque, Mivago chimango, el traro, Caracara plancus, y muy ocasionalmente se ha podido observar al carancho negro, Phalcoboenus australis.
