While working today a Royal Newcastle Hospital, I
found a Buff Banded Rail. It consisted a 2 wings and a head and upper body that
was squashed flat on the drive way. I went and got Phil Hansbro (who works in
the University building next door) and he confirmed it wasn't a Lewins
Rail!!.
RNH is only metres from the beach and there is no
suitable habitat for quite some distance(maybe 5 km). Phil and I speculated that
it was probably flying at night and hit one of the buildings and been
subsequently eaten by a cat.
Most unusual find.
