My first time seeing this bird was yesterday. I have been hearing other birders at the marsh mentioning the Virginia Rail, and really wanted to get a look at one. I kept hearing their call, the crazy grunting. LOL. (I was familiarized to it through Merlin.) However, I never could find one...- Joker9937

Didn't make it
A day 1 baby virginia rail tried to follow his dad to walk on the floating dead reeds, but he din't quite make it. Dad has to pick him up quickly and rushed him back to a safe place. This happened in a very short time, and I didn't quite make it too.- eastwood

Virginia Rail
A warm and sunny afternoon, after visiting Boundary Bay, dropped by and spent 3 hours waiting for this guy. A pair turned up on 4 occasions, but didn't stay long. One which I can appreciate the flexibility of the zoom (although I use full zoom for this shot).- eastwood
