Clapper Rail at Green Lane Reservoir! ~ April 26, 2022

Michael Lyman discovered a rail at the Walt Road area of Green Lane Reservoir, which was later confirmed to be a Clapper Rail! When I got there, it was tucked in under a bush near the boat launch area.
Luckily, it later came out to drink, bathe, and preen, allowing me to get some nice photos of this often secretive bird that is normally found in coastal marshes.

It was a new Pennsylvania bird for me and one that I never had gotten a photograph of before, so it was a really good day.
