What is this wading bird?
This wader was filmed in mid-March, in a small stream in south-west England. It seems to have plumage which is mainly grey (below) and brown above, with white lateral flashes, yellow legs, yellow beak, with dark neck immediately below, short regularly twitching tail which has some white streaks, a steady gait, with some sudden spurts. I'd like it to be identifed, by its common and/or scientific name, please.

The bird in your picture is a Moorhen also known in some parts of the UK as a Waterhen
(Gallinula chloropus)
Hope this has helped you solve the "crime"

Looks like a Sora or a Crake.
