African rail
These birds probe with their bill in mud or shallow water, also picking up food by sight. They mainly eat insects, crabs and other small aquatic animals.
Marsh rice rat
Animals that are important to the marsh rice rat's diet include insects, fiddler crabs, and snails, but the species is known to eat many other animals, including fish, clams, and juvenile "Graptemys" and "Chrysemys" turtles. They scavenge on carcasses of muskrats, deermice, and sparrows, and may be the most important predator on eggs and young of the marsh wren. Rice rats also eat eggs and young of the seaside sparrow ("Ammodramus maritimus") and are aggressive towards the sparrow, apparently leading it to avoid nesting in "Juncus" in a seaside salt marsh in Florida. On islands in North Carolina, rice rats consume eggs of Forster's tern ("Sterna forsteri"). They have been observed preying on alligator eggs in Georgia.
