Buff-banded Rail

[Duncan McCaskill <>]

Buff-banded Rails have only been recorded in the GBS a couple of times before. Once in 1984 in the ANU grounds, and in 3 weeks last GBS year (2011/12, in Oct, Nov & Jan) in my site in Giralang. All records so far are of single birds.

They must be on the increase. Before long they'll take over the place

The bird was seen again this morning while I was doing the K2C surveys, this time on the other side of the house, in a more open area near our frog pond.

 

Attached are a couple of photos.
