Last ones for now. In my experience Buff-banded Rails are shy birds that normally run into reeds or grasses if they even glimpse you from a distance. Yesterday, at Lake Herdsman, I was amazed at how unconcerned they were, not only at my close presence, but completely ignored walkers and joggers going by on the nearby paths. What was even more amazing was that they had their young (so cute) in tow.
