While cycling up Fairlight Rd yesterday morning, a few hundred metres
past the ACT/NSW border, a Rail burst out of the long grass at the side
of the road only a few metres in front of me. It got about a metre into
the road, then noticed me and did a quick 180 and disappeared into the
vegetation again. First time I've seen one at a location not a wetlands.
There is a farm dam and small creek on the other side of the road from
where the Rail came from and disappeared to.
