OK I know im not great at identifying birds but i do know what a bittern looks like  more so when it takes off 10ft away from me so im 100% sure about this.it was in the small lake close to the first bridge( walking from the car park ) and flew off to the back of the small lake directly in front of the bridge .

Hi Robert, Terrible time for bittern at the moment and I am glad that at least one is still alive. You don't mention whether the pond is frozen over so I would assume that it is not. Areas of open water is a real scarcity here ar Far Ings, in fact all our species seem to be trapped in an ice cube like the famous mosquito in amber. Fingers crossed for bitterns. |

Fingers crossed for bitterns. most of it is indeed frozen over but theres a dyke that runs into it and that is still running so a very small area is not frozen ,the main lake is solid ice. Rob. |
