That's a beauty. Smooth, almost fur like on its head. Lovely colours.

Thank you very much.

A Least Bittern has been reported in the area, but alas, I couldn't locate it. So instead, took the opportunity to photograph more Greenies.

2018 = Year of the Greenies.

Bitterns are tough. I usually find them when I am not looking for them!
