Editing Slaty-legged crake (section)

==Behaviour==
Slaty-legged crakes are territorial, but are quite secretive, hiding in bushes when disturbed.  They probe with their bill in mud or shallow water, also picking up food by sight. They forage for [[Berry|berries]] and [[insect]]s on the ground, or clambering through bushes and undergrowth. They nest in a dry location on the ground or low bush usually near forest paths and forest streams, laying 4–8 [[Egg (biology)|egg]]s. A study conducted in Nilambur, [[Kerala]] in southern India shows that the incubation period was about 20 days.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Murukesh M.D.|first1=Peroth Balakrishnan|title=On the breeding of the Slaty-legged Crake (Aves: Rallidae: Rallina eurizonoides) in Nilambur, Kerala, southern India|journal=Journal of Threatened Taxa|year=2015|volume=7|issue=6|pages=7298–7301|url=http://www.threatenedtaxa.in/index.php/JoTT/article/view/2029/3249|doi=10.11609/jott.o4185.7298-301 |doi-access=free}}</ref>
