If these are anything like as shy as the great bitterns we get in the UK then many congrats on the shot - there are only about 75 pairs over here - I have seen one once - heard them a lot though

I'm not sure I've ever seen an image of one of these before. Interesting bird.

Beautiful portrait! He looks as if he is posing for you. I love the contrast of the greens and rusts and browns. Gorgeous!!

It is a good dof, almost looks as it has fur rather than fluff.

Nice detail and sharpnness in the bird Sandy. The reeds and droplets are a nice background.

Interesting bird, never seen one here, the leaves look so real I could touch them.

i think photographing birds might be harder than insects .. most birds dont let you near them at all .. its a great shot sandy .. i really like the background and the lighting .. as well as the bird of course .. :)

Not the easiest bird to photograph. I was lucky enough to get a couple of bittern shots a while back and boasted and boasted! (And won a competition with one of them)
