Observation details
Best look I've ever had at a bittern, by far. Probably the same one Sara G found a couple of weeks back though not in the same place. This one was in the oxbow north of Brougham Pond Road. It took off from the bank right below me, huge racket, flew about 15 yards across the water and settled on the far bank. Over the next 15 minutes the only movement was its head, and that just a couple of times. Remarkable. Even a fine image reflected on the water.
