After having a short discussion with another birder at our local birding spot (Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline), it turns out there are three possible rails (Rallidae) that could be spotted there: Ridgway's Rail, Virginia Rail, and he mentioned one other I can't recall.
So this calls into question whether I have been properly ID'ing my rail photos since I only knew about the Ridgway's Rail at this location. I looked at photos of the Virginia Rail, and I still think my photos are of the Ridgway's, but I want to be sure.
If someone would be so kind as to double-check my rail photos, I would be very appreciative:
I consider these forums a great educational opportunity for birders--I'd hate to provide wrong information, even in someplace as simple as my gallery.
THANKS for all your help!
