Purple Gallinule

The Purple Gallinule is a colorful, but secretive bird of the southern marshes. I remember once staring for long minutes in the hopes of seeing one crawling about the reeds.

The treat of Wakodahatchee and Green Cay is that they provide more than just glimpses of birds, such as the Purple Gallinule. There are also that opportunities to watch as an elusive bird teeters along branch stems and forages for its version of delectable treats.

Good Birding ! !
