Snapshot: Common Gallinule

It may resemble a chicken but the Common Gallinule is a member of the Rail family. It swims like a duck and can walk on lily pads using those extra long toes to spread its weight. It was formerly called the Common Moorhen due to its resemblance to the Old World moorhens.
