About These Birds

Bare-eyed Rail

Bare-eyed Rail (Gymnocrex plumbeiventris) is a 27–31 cm rail of the Moluccas and New Guinea region. Grey below; brown above; distinctive bare red-orange facial skin around eye. Inhabits lowland rainforest, secondary forest, and forest edges near water. Secretive; walks through leaf litter foraging for invertebrates and small vertebrates.

Laysan Rail

Laysan Rail (Zapornia palmeri) is an extinct tiny 15 cm flightless rail formerly endemic to Laysan Island in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. Pale brownish with short wings; lively and inquisitive behavior noted by early observers. Survived until 1944 when introduced rabbits devastated the island's vegetation, eliminating food and cover.
