@@ukwildlife yup they sure are. It's pretty sad. But places like tiritiri matangi are just amazing when you visit. Offshore islands they've cleared the predators from
Despite the light the footage is great. Definitely thought there was something it was missing with all that probing - could be a crayfish tactic. Crazy poise, love Bitterns, stealthy to the max. Excellent as always. Si.
Wonderful captures. What a beautiful bird.
Thank you
Fantastic behaviour video ,well done
Thank you :)
Very enjoyable. Would be nice if the camera settings would remain visible a bit longer on the still shots. Thanks. Randy
Thanks
Yes I leave them up a bit longer these days, was "overly brief" with my editing in this video!
absolutely lovely
Thank you :)
Nice video neil. It was definitely worth getting there when we did.
Thanks again for driving, hopefully a few folk will follow the link and wander over to your video too :)
Wow that's some special footage of the bittern. We have them here in nz but I've never seen one
Thanks. Was great to see them
I gather like many of your native bird species they are quite rare due to introduced predators :(
