From Thursday's walk to get groceries: a swamp hen posing on an old railway track.

@pelicangut I don't want to seem harsh but someone more imaginative needs to be naming your beautiful birds. Swamp Hen? I bet Brian in the ornithological department wouldn't like to be labelled Bird Twat. Try harder Brian!

@pelicangut That’s in Aussie? I did not know you had them over there. Here, they are pūkeko

@pelicangut Looks very similar to the New Zealand pukeko.
