Great shots. I've never seen one...Experienced birders tell me this is a difficult bird to spot. They are shy and blend in well with their surroundings..

difficult to capture, I like the wading through mud look

Nice work!
I have heard clapper rails, but never seen them. They're usually painfully shy, so this is pretty impressive.
