Yellow Rail

Red Slough WMA; OK

Many thanks to David Arbour and Berlin Heck, for getting us into a situation where shots like this were possible at this notoriously difficult bird to see.

In the 8 years or so of these rail drags, I think this is the 1st time a bird has frozen for people like this.
