Huntington Beach State Park & Pawleys Island (Continued):
Clapper Rails can be elusive and difficult to see.
Frequently, they may be heard but not seen.
We were lucky enough to have numerous good looks at three or four Clapper Rails during our visit to Huntington Beach State Park, including one that chose to bathe nearby!
So today I’d like to share eight of my favorite Clapper Rail images from our recent trip, along with one photo each of a Palm Warbler and a Red-tailed Hawk.
Enjoy!
Stay safe, and have a great day!

Huntington Beach State Park & Pawleys Island:
I spent the weekend of October 18-20, 2024, birding with a small, genial, and quite experienced group from the Mecklenburg Audubon Society, mainly at Huntington Beach State Park in Murrells Inlet, SC, with a brief visit to nearby Pawleys Island on Sunday morning.
The weather was sunny and mild, with gorgeous light, and there was quite a variety of interesting and photogenic birds around!
As a result, I took many photographs, which I have been sorting through over the past week.
I’d like to share some of my favorite images from this fun weekend, starting with today’s post, and continuing with numerous subsequent posts.
Roseate Spoonbills were one of my favorite photographic subjects on this trip, so today I’ll start with nine shots of these attractive birds, with one image of a pair of immature Common Galinules thrown in at the end.
Enjoy!
Stay safe, and have a great day!
