Observation details
Continuing bird seen at dusk. Thanks so much to Craig Rasmussen and Advait Marathe for such great tips on locating this beautiful bird. Medium-sized rail. Prominent reddish bill (which sometimes looked darker, depending on the view), and red legs. Burnished rufous color, dark stripes on back, barring on sides, and gray cheeks. Very shy and skulky in the reeds, moving in and out of view. Got to watch the rail take a bath in the shallows through the reeds. Photo to follow.
