Water Rail

Water Rail / rallus aquaticus. Attenborough, Nottinghamshire. 20/03/18.

 

After a sleep which lasted in excess of an hour, (tucked deep in vegetation), it was a joy when the Water Rail became active again. It was even better when it came right out into the open and explored the shallow water channel, looking for food. It put on a good show eventually that day.
