October 2017 It's always exciting when a Water Rail breaks cover.

These are really secretive little birds that spend most of their time hidden deep in the vegetation.  It is always exciting when they break cover and they seldom spend long in the open.  This one also made a lot of squealing calls when out of site.  It is said to be reminiscent of a weaner pig!
