Hallo Jim
This is really super. Not only the overall photography but the beautiful bird itself. It has the most striking colours and the details is eye-catching. I like it a lot. An image with great focus, sharpness, clear detail and just right composition. A lovely close approach worth a definite 10 out of 10. Best regards and thanks for sharing.

Hi Jim, a nice picture, but in my opinion it's not a bittern, but a Green Heron (Butorides virescens).
