Description
The blue-faced rail is a 30 cm, medium-sized, secretive, forest rail.[1] It has a conspicuous patch of bare cobalt-blue skin around the eye[1] that gives the bird its distinctive name. The blue-faced rail makes a snoring sound apparently similar to that of the snoring rail,[1] and it also gives off a quiet clucking sound in alarm.[1]
