Aaron Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 An American bittern was one of the first birds I ever remember wanting to see. Haven’t been successful yet, but can’t say I’ve gone out of my way to try 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonesome55dove Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 It is a bittern pill to swallow, but I have never seen an American Bittern, so I do not have a photo of one. But I am enjoying everyone else's great shots. TFS! ? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you Jefferson but will still take advantage of this as I've had much more luck with Least Bitterns. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clip Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 @BigOlyWhy confused? If you are thinking we disturbed the bird we did not. We were actually there first and it came out in the open right in front of us. Strutted around some then decided it was upset (got puffy). Strutted (no longer puffy) around some more and finally disappeared into the cattails/tall grasses. The point being it came out completely on it's own while we quietly watched. This was a board walk situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
