Observation details
heard well seen briefly. First time I have actually seen this bird in Cuba. I have always heard them in places but this time the photos reveal the the rufus upperwing, the boldly patterned black and white rump, flank and don't foret to look at the same strong pattern on the underwing. Breath-takingly beautiful . The brown and black streaked back and orange chest and throat are detailed as well. These are my first photos of King Rail. I know what I will feel like when I see and photogroaph the Zapata Rail.... This is almost as good. What an amazing Rail.
