About These Birds
Swinhoe's Rail
Swinhoe's Rail (Coturnicops exquisitus) is a tiny 13–14 cm rail of East Asia and Siberia. Streaked brown plumage with a buffy face; very small and quail-like. Breeds in Siberia, Manchuria, and Mongolia; winters in south-east China, Korea, and Japan. Inhabits wet grassland, rice paddies, and sedge marshes. Extremely secretive; rarely detected.
Mascarene Coot
Mascarene Coot (Fulica newtonii) is an extinct giant coot formerly inhabiting Mauritius and Réunion in the Indian Ocean. Larger than Eurasian Coot; likely flightless or near-flightless. Extirpated by hunting and introduced predators in the 17th–18th centuries. Known from subfossil remains and written accounts by early European visitors.
