Observation details
Watched initially 1 rail gathering nesting material and periodically sitting within the nest in what seemed an unusual choice of location, on exposed sand flat opposite the boat ramp. A second Rail joined after about 10 minutes and also participated in building. After about 10 more minutes 2 more Rails joined them and also participated in the building. 3 Rails then went down and bathed while 1 Rail stayed at the next continuing the build. It is extremely likely this nest would be washed away at next high tide. Photographed.
