This shows this so well how it is indeed hidden in plain sight! Love the framing Warren! Great use of habitat to tell this story.

Great job of showcasing the bittern in its natural habitat, Warren. The composition is excellent. Very nicely done!

A great image of a somewhat reclusive species. The large feet of the bittern are displayed very well in your photo, Warren.

One of the most elusive birds, that is. Great find and image.
