Male Least Bittern hanging on for dear life as he fishes for his meal. They are so intense while they fish.
The BG is very busy but that is where you find them most of the time. Back among the reeds and grasses and a few twisted pieces of tree limbs.

Hi Kathy: I love this shot. That back foot is tooooo much. Great job. If you feel it is busy, you could select the bird then blur the background, which would also make the bittern stand out.
