American Bittern (Botaurus lentiginosus) stalking its prey - The Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, NJ.
Bitterns have remarkable eyes. When viewing this image at the large or original size you can see the cornea is so incredibly transparent that the pupil appears to protrude from the eye socket.
