Yes indeed I will have to give way on the crakes. My initial  
impression of juvenile moorhens was correct; they were nearly all  
very near a moorhen and they certainly weren't skulking around the  
undergrowth but out on the lawn in plain sight.
In my defence I will blame my wife as she really did the ident from  
simpson & day; I just lazily accepted her identification. Mea Culpa.
