Slaty-breasted Rail

Krabi, mangrove forest

Who doesn't like rails and crakes? Every birder I know love to see one.
Here is one of the resident ones. Never easy to spot as expected.
This one didn't realize I was on the boardwalk inside the mangroves of Krabi so I could take my time shooting away.

I'm from Singapore. One just appeared at my residence, which is very urban. Probably it got lost somehow.

Great capture for that type of bird.

What a beauty!! Yes, it's always exciting to see a rail, and more exciting to get a great shot too!

Beautiful shot! The detail is great. I found a Spotless Crake on Wednesday; one of our rarer specimens. There may be a decent photo. This is one of it's near relatives. Well done. Voted.
