Tiny Belize is a terrific destination not only as an introduction to tropical rainforest birding but also for a great variety of water-associated birds, especially at places like Crooked Tree Lagoon, where 2012 participants David and Susan Disher grabbed an image of this Gray-necked Wood-Rail during our tour. These large and bold rails are often first detected by their loud, chorusing duets, which can be heard at many locations from southern Mexico to northern Argentina.
