The moorhen is a medium-sized, ground-dwelling bird, that is usually found near water.

From a distance it looks black with a ragged white line along its body. Up close it is olive-brown on the back and the head and underneath is a blueish grey. It has a red bill with a yellow tip and green legs.

A candidate for further exposure.
