Purple Gallinule - Porphyrio martinicus

Little Chauncy Lake, Westborough, Ma.

Purple Gallinules are southern birds that rarely make it as far north as Massachusetts. Justin Lawson found the bird the day before and I was lucky enough that the gallinule was still there and very cooperative.

Well, that is an uncommon and unusual sight. Super shot of it too.
