American Bittern in Stone Harbor

Went to the Wetlands Institute in Stone Harbor and was completely surprised when this American Bittern showed itself for just a few seconds as it walked from one place to another. I only had time for 1 full shot of him before he disappeared into the reeds but I was very happy to get him!

That's a great catch Helen, I know just how hard it is to get this bird in the open! [linked image]
