I was able to get permission for those Black Rail photos that you mention
from Brian Tang. You can view them here...

However, Black Rail is easily one of the most difficult birds to
photograph. I don't think I've seen a single decent Texas photo-record
other than the two that are currently posted. Photographing these birds is
clearly a reflection of how difficult they are to observe.
