Bald Ibis (Geronticus eremita)
Corn Crake (Crex crex)
Largely unmistakable, even at a distance when bald head is not apparent. Note short legs and short, thick neck without bulbous head. In flight note that the legs are not protruding behind tail, and that the wings usually show 3-4 "fingers". Frequent soaring flight, as opposed to Glossy Ibis.
Sound:Mostly silent. Vocal at breeding ground, where a range of guttural calls can be heard, "yarrp, yarrp" etc.

CCAbout half the size of Partridge with brownish plumage, bluish grey supercilium and breast sides. Flanks barred in white, back heavily streaked. Rufous wings obvious in flight. Seldom seen due to secretive behaviour, but song very noticeable.
Sound:Characteristic song can be heard at night. A rasping, hoarse "crex-crex" repeated about every second for long periods of time.
