Talaud Rail
Talaud Rail (Gymnocrex talaudensis) is a poorly-known rail endemic to the Talaud Islands in the northern Moluccas, Indonesia. Similar to Blue-faced Rail; brown above with some rufous tones; bare facial skin. Inhabits forest and scrub on small islands. Known from very few specimens.
South Island Takahe
South Island Takahe (Porphyrio hochstetteri) is a 50–63 cm flightless swamphen endemic to New Zealand's South Island alpine tussock grasslands. Deep blue-green plumage with green-brown back; massive red bill and frontal shield. Rediscovered in Fiordland in 1948 after presumed extinction.
