dragon49 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I was hoping for a King Rail photo lifer, but I think the stripe patterns indicate Least Bittern. No better shots. This was at full zoom and already cropped. I hear Least Bitterns all of the time, but don't see them too often. I initially thought King Rail because of the posture. With my limited viewing experience of Least Bitterns, I've never seen this upright posture. Taken this morning in Belle Glade, Florida: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
