About These Birds
African Swamphen
African Swamphen (Porphyrio madagascariensis) is a 38–50 cm large gallinule of sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar. Deep blue-purple with greenish back, massive red bill and frontal shield, and red legs. Inhabits papyrus swamps, lake shores, and dense reed beds. Similar to Purple Swamphen but restricted to Africa.
Andaman Crake
Andaman Crake (Rallina canningi) is a 25–28 cm crake endemic to the Andaman Islands in the Bay of Bengal. Chestnut head and breast; dark olive-brown back; white-barred underparts. Inhabits forested wetlands, mangrove edges, and marshy clearings. Poorly known; considered Near Threatened due to restricted island range and deforestation pressures.
