Marsh Wren and Clapper Rail at SPI Birding Center

These two birds are tough birds to spot as they spend most of the time in the reeds. Only occasionally do they show up for glimpse. The Clapper was out for 5 seconds and the Wren would show for a few seconds each time.  It is my first sighting of both this year.

 About have a dozen birders were trying to get a good look or a photo of this Wren for ID-ing.  I took about a 30 photos but only had a few that were out in the open.  The Clapper gave us only one viewing that was almost right under us. I heard another Clap about 15 minutes later.  Only one of the Clapper photo is in focus, but that's it.
