?Baillon's Crake (Porzana pusilla)

Saw this Crake after being tip off by some friendly birder in Canberra.

I think this is a Baillon Crake, it is small, and does not have a red base on the beak. Can someone positively ID this bird, please?

more on my blog.

It could well be but I'm not up on crakes at all. Maybe worth posting in the ID forums on the other part of the site.
