My local patch is well known for it's abundance of Water Rails but many do not see them, only hear their grunts and squeals. Having frequented the location for seven years now I know exactly when and where to see them so I am always confident in finding the odd one or two of these secretive, skulking birds. Today I saw seven in one area and four at the same time so please excuse me for posting so many images.
This is about all most see of a Water Rail as it runs off squealing:

And some that didn't run away:
