The last time I saw an American Bittern it was sat in a ditch in Lancashire in the early 1990’s. That was some 30 years ago. The memories came flooding back a few weeks ago on a boardwalk in Florida.
A species that can secrete itself so tightly in a reedbed it can become the landscape and yet can cross open oceans is truly enigmatic.
