About These Birds
Dusky Moorhen
Dusky Moorhen (Gallinula tenebrosa) is a 35–40 cm moorhen of Australia, New Guinea, and Indonesia's freshwater wetlands. Dark slaty-grey with brown back, red frontal shield, and yellow-tipped red bill. Common on lakes, rivers, and park ponds. Walks along shorelines and swims freely. Feeds on aquatic plants, invertebrates, and seeds.
Kosrae Crake
Kosrae Crake (Zapornia monasa) is an extinct flightless rail formerly endemic to Kosrae in the Caroline Islands, Micronesia. Known from bones and a single 19th-century description. Dark plumage, reduced wings. Extirpated following Polynesian and later European settlement; likely lost to introduced rats and cats.
