QUÉ SIGNIFICA CORNCRAKE EN INGLÉS
Guión de codornices
El crake, el corncrake o el landrail del maíz es un pájaro en la familia del carril. Se reproduce en Europa y Asia hasta el extremo oeste de China, y migra a África para el invierno del hemisferio norte. Es un crake de tamaño mediano con partes superiores de color marrón oscuro con bordes de color gris o amarillo, marcas de castaño en las alas y partes inferiores de color azul-gris con barras de color óxido y blancas en los flancos y la parte inferior de la cola. La factura fuerte es de color carne, el iris es de color marrón claro, y las piernas y los pies son de color gris pálido. El juvenil es similar en plumaje al adulto, y los pollitos sucios son negros, como con todos los carriles. No hay subespecies, aunque los individuos del este de la zona de cría tienden a ser ligeramente más pálidos que sus homólogos occidentales. La llamada del varón es un fuerte krek krek, del cual se deriva el nombre científico. El crake del maíz es más grande que su pariente más cercano, el crake africano, que comparte su gama wintering; Esa especie es también más oscura-plumaged, y tiene una cara más llana. El hábitat de cría del crake de maíz es el pastizal, especialmente los campos de heno, y utiliza ambientes similares en los terrenos de invernada.
