Nice catch. You said it perfectly, all my rail shots are accidental. In all other cases where I planned to capture shots of clapper rails, my success rate is so far zero.

Yeah Shark, I have had about the same luck when it comes to catching a Rail on demand. Over there in California there is talk about moving the (California/Pacific) Clapper Rail over into the King Rail species. They look so much darker I wouldn't be surprised. Thanks for all the kind words!
