Not a great photo, light to harsh and subject to far away, but it's my first photo of an elusive Water Rail, so I decided to share it with you al the same.
Some challenging bright light on a good subject. Our first photography session of the tour centered on a small flock of Yellow-tufted Woodpeckers. He was backlit but this male was fairly cooperative
@JimsPhotos@ohai.social for a rail this is a good shot. I can vouch for how shy they are :)
