Clapper Rail-looking back

[Lorant Voros]

Another image of the rail. There was a pair; while one was getting closer to me the other one was heading the other way:). I noticed the one heading away and took this image, not having time adjusting my settings.

Lovely image Lorant. Just as an FYI, the "Clapper" Rails were recently split into 3 separate species. I believe your bird is now known as Ridgeway's Rail. More reading here: http://blog.aba.org/2014/07/2014-aou...nt-is-out.html

I like the light and color. It's nicely composed, and a good look back at the camera. The feather detail looks a little soft to me.
