Observation details

This immature Purple Gallinule was found in juried and picked up by the Erie County SPCA. The bird was rehabbed for several weeks and then released in mid-October at a local marsh. Record submitted by Alec Humann on 11/16/25 after being brought to my attention after the SPCA posted the photo to their Facebook page.
