Jim Howard-Birt 🐦📸: Photos

Not a great photo, light to harsh and subject to far away, but it's my first photo of an elusive Water Rail, so I decided to share it with you all the same.

@JimsPhotos for a rail this is a good shot. I can vouch for how shy they are :)

@c0c0bird that's so true. Been looking for one for a couple of years. I can hear them, just never see them.

@JimsPhotos Nice find. Always a special moment when they do decide to show themselves.

@JimsPhotos well done getting such a nice shot, they’re very tricky to get a clear view of. Much clearer than my first, it’s a butt in the reeds with no head!

I have heard plenty of them about over the last week though but not seen another one.
