Ridgway’s Rail Family
This morning (April 24) around 10:40 am I was leading a group of fifth graders along the trail at Buena Vista Lagoon when near the SE corner I heard the unmistakable call of a Ridgway’s Rail. Out popped an adult, followed by 7 black chicks and another adult! Wow what an awesome sight to share with the kids. I hadn’t seen or heard a rail here for over 2 years. Most of the trail is flooded out.
