Okinawa Rail (Gallirallus okinawae)

The best time to see the Okinawa Rail, is early in the morning, when it was raining in the night.
I took this picture early (6:45 morning), after some rain in the night... this morning, I saw about 10 Rail.

I heard the rail can be very hard to see sometimes. I would be overjoyed if I had seen 10 birds. Well done!!
