WATER RAIL
This bird, too, will be porobably sooner heard than seen.
With its characteristic piglet-like grunting, the Water Rail often surprises us while walking through thick vegetation. When in danger, it hides very quickly indeed. In the area of Sečovlje Salina Nature Park, it inhabits primarily reed stands along the Sečovlje mine, the estuary of the Dragonja river and, individually, the area of Stojbe.
