On October 1 I reported hearing a King Rail at Lilypons.  Since then there have been two sightings of Virginia Rail at the same pond including adult with juvenile.  Since I may have been mistaken about what I believed to be a large rail that I heard, it is best to let it go as unidentified unless someone can confirm that a King Rail is actually present there.
