The Virginia rail is an Otter Doug, a couple of grunts and then he
chewed away! But yes, we get Virginia Rails too, Just shows you though,
you can get all these kind of pockets anywhere in the USA, although the
wife tells me she would rather be down there with the warmth :-)

There's a Virginia Rail grunting at 1:59, too, isn't there? That's
another
species we have in common. Funny - here I am at 3600' (1100m) in the
desert
of Arizona and you are essentially at sea level near the Washington
coast,
and our species list is so similar! Of course, my house sits above the
Verde River, so the list is primarily a riparian list, as is yours.
