Cor!!!! What a wonderful picture to get of this crake Kevin. Nice birds to see anyway.... and doubly so when they're rare.

We had one at our local reserve some years ago now. I went over to try and hear it calling, but even with the help of the warden couldn't get a peep!!!

Thanks for showing him to us lad and for bringing back that memory too.
