American Bittern
The American Bittern is a secretive bird that wanders in the reeds and will stand perfectly still with his neck stretched up looking very much like a reed. We were really lucky to see this one very close and actively hunting. Not expecting to see something this close I had a 150-500 lens on and needed a smaller lens which was in the car.
