Media notes
Brian (poorly) imitating an odd rail call into phone voice recorder to try to research later, followed by an immediate surprise response (grunts) from an actual rail. Other species: Canada Goose.
Observation details
Gave strange call, unprompted, from the marsh beneath the tower. Brian didn't recognize the call and imitated it poorly, only to have the rail respond with full grunt sequence immediately. Bird later seen scuttling from one patch of vegetation to another.
