Clapper Rail is now Rallus crepitans.
Rallus longirostis is Mangrove Rail which of course doesn't occur in NY
Nice sighting under any name

I spent the early afternoon (1200-1445 hours) patrolling Dune Rd., between
the Post Lane Bridge, Quogue and Shinnicock Inlet, Hampton Bays. During
this time I was able to pick up 4 common species as FOY birds, the
highlight being 2 Clapper Rails, taking their time while crossing Dune Rd.
