The taxonomy of the small crakes is complicated, but the closest relative of the African crake is the corn crake, C. crex, which breeds in Europe and Asia, but winters in Africa.

I’m just a Kentucky corn-cracker, with my words of, “hit, hain’t, tote, fetch, carry.

At the Iški Morost Nature Reserve you can watch rare species of birds, such as corn crake, Eurasian curlew, common quail etc.

They are important for three species of nesting birds: the Montagu’s harrier Circus pygargus, the short-eared owl, and the corn crake Crex crex (Figure 10).

The risk of extinction of the Corncrake in the next decade was discussed in light of the results of the 2006 survey.

The Site is also the only massive nesting site for corncrake (Crex crex) in the region, and contains up to 120 nests.

The second specific inventory (1991-92), meanwhile, showed a significant decrease in both the numbers and the range of the Corncrake.

The Hebrides are home to unusual characters like the corncrake and puffin (pictured), and in Skye you can see two types of eagle.

The site was of particular significance as a nesting site for the Dalmatian pelican, ferruginous duck, the pygmy cormorant and corncrake.
