Black Bittern showing off a few poses which I thought were interesting. The other shot is in Sue's Big Year Challenge 2020
A fairly typical pose
An odd looking pose as if it is mimicking a tree fern

Wow look at that neck. It's like a go go gadget neck! Thanks for sharing
I had no idea Bitterns are necktiverous - which you've so ably shown off, sue.
I saw the first photo on the big year challenge but i think i'm more impressed with the second. What a neck!!! Almost looks reptillian.
What a beautiful bird, agree that's a long neck. Strange looking thing.

Yes, I thought it an interesting pose. Have seen them stick the head up on that long neck when in reeds & they blend in well. Clever play on words, Woko. Thanks
Definitely necktivorous. Great shots of a very cool bird.
Once bittern, twice shy, sue.
Oh dear, Woko, I asked for that did I not?
Ms Woko constantly reminds me I need no encouragement.
