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.
Marquesan Swamphen
Marquesan Swamphen (Porphyrio paepae) is an extinct flightless swamphen known only from subfossil bones from the Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia. Lost following Polynesian settlement and later European contact. Part of the broader pattern of Pacific island rail extinctions linked to human arrival and introduced rats.
