Bitterns are large and secretive birds that live amongst the reeds, they are often very hard to spot spending most of their time hidden away feeding on fish, amphibians and insects. Males can occasionally be heard making a far-reaching booming sound during the breeding season. 😍 🎥 Steve Everett #winterwatch | BBC Springwatch

The American Bittern is one of the marsh’s most elusive hunters, moving with slow precision through dense reeds. Designed to vanish in a heartbeat, it rarely offers a clear view. I had to line up a perfect gap in the vegetation to capture these moments as it slipped through the wetlands in search of its next meal. #americanbittern #bittern #birds #nature #wildlife #sonyalpha #wildlifevideos | Amber Favorite Photography
