A team of dedicated board members, volunteers, and student interns has published every page in Volume 9. This volume includes 360 images of paintings and lyrical descriptions of birds, now available online for everyone to enjoy anywhere in the world. This is a monumental task. Each volume requires approximately 400 hours to photograph, edit, transcribe, catalog, and publish online. We need your support to complete this work.
If you're tech-savvy, have a good eye, are meticulous with details, and love structured data, please consider volunteering by emailing us at hello@rexbrasher.org.
We encourage all bird lovers and supporters to consider a monetary donation to support our mission to make Rex's work available for everyone. You can provide a one-time or recurring donation online.
Restricted to salt marshes of southern arm of San Francisco Bay and some small areas nearby, this species' habits are similar to other members of the genus. Rats, hawks, mink and men would seem enuf enemies for the CALIFORNIA CLAPPER RAIL to contend with, yet to this list must be added a large mussel which catches these Rails and holds them until death comes.
—— Several comments come to mind: the thotful will surmise them according to his angle of vision at Providence.
NEST: unusually well built for a Rail; of dead leaves and grasses; in or near marshes.
EGGS: 6–14: pale buff minutely dotted with shades of brown and mauve and a few blotches.
Coast region of California from Humboldt Bay to Monterey Bay.
