HoneyMonster Senior Member More info | Jan 19, 2016 06:43 | #10 That is a great return for 2.5 hours, given how rare they are in the UK. The RSPB estimates only 600 individuals in the whole of the UK and only 80 breeding males. Also, Since they are almost always in the reed beds, to capture a Bittern in flight is a rare event. Unfortunately, living in Scotland I am a long way from any Bitterns.
