Sora (Porzana carolina)

This was the first and only time, I had seen a Sora and when taking the picture I didn't know what it was. I only knew that it was a fascinating find and was definitely a new species to add to my life list. Only after returning home and downloading the picture was I able to identify what I had seen.

I had been walking along the boardwalk at the Sackville Waterfowl Park in May when I photographed this bird.
