Grey-necked Wood-rail
Aramides cajaneusOverview 1
The Gray-necked Wood-Rail is a large Rallid distributed from Argentina north to Mexico. It is usually secretive but occasionally roams in the open near the edges of wetlands or mangroves. The species is quite vocal in the early morning when it makes its presence known with a crazed series of squealing, yelping phrases. Gray-necked Wood-Rails are quite striking in appearance with olive-brown above and rusty and black below with a gray head and neck, stocky yellow bill, and reddish legs and feet.
