Bittern on the wing

Friends, I was practicing my flight shooting on some Great egrets that are migrating thru Crex, when this American Bittern flew down the path that i had been shooting, actually a pair of bitterns flew over, what a thrill, i have photographed these birds fishing for food and generally stalking the marshes, but never saw them fly, what awaits me tomorrow in the marshes of Crex? til Tomorrow MJ

  1. I enjoyed your presentation tonight in Eau Claire. Your blog looks great!

  2. We have seen they fly at a long distance, but never close up. We can feel your excitement. Great shot. jack
