[Ontbirds]Rail @ Wye Marsh

[Adam Zita]

Walking out on the boardwalk just before it opened up to marsh, I spotted
what I later determined to be a rail out along some open patches of water
right beside the board walk.

Not sure if it was a Virginia or not, but it was definitely a rail of some
sort.  Not expecting to see this bird here this time of year I though it was
a small duck. Its coloring was dark without any noticeable marks, it beak
was long a thin, and it moved just like a rail as it was moving through the
snow
