About These Birds
Ruddy Crake
Ruddy Crake (Laterallus ruber) is a small 14–16 cm, richly colored crake of Central America. Bright chestnut-rufous body; grey head; greenish bill. Inhabits wet grassy marshes, rice paddies, and flooded fields from Mexico to Costa Rica. Secretive but often calls at dusk; its purring trill is a distinctive wetland sound.
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.
