*Ruins your day with the knowledge of the worm on a string bird*

The American Bittern is WEIRD. Look at this thing! Basically a worm on a string. But instead of being a little silly toy its just a guy.

And don't even GET ME STARTED on what this dude sounds like.

If you look really closely you will see the back of an American bittern hiding in the reeds. This bad photo was taken after I got a much better look with my binoculars. Tide was dead low so it was resting most likely. It took a long time to find it but I was super glad I persevered!

One of my most exciting recent sightings was this American Bittern (Botaurus lentiginosus) spotted in Long Point this month. This was a species of bird that I always assumed I would never see, but all it takes is being at the right place at the right time. These secretive herons stalk wetlands for fish, amphibians, reptiles and insects. . . . . . . . #nature #ontario #americanbittern #bittern #botaurus #botauruslentiginosus #wetlandbirds #marshbird #herons #camouflage #ontarionaturephotography #longpoint #longpointbirds #blognorfolk #norfolkwild #norfolkontario (at Long Point, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd9m4o3M2nq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Pleasure of Meeting American Bitterns are some of the most difficult waders to see. Their plumage provides them with excellent camouflage and their ability to stand motionless can make them almost imperceptible amongst the reeds and bramble of the swamps they inhabit. Meeting one approachable at ground level was a treat, as it tip-toed its way to a sunset dinner of wetland snakes. The treat was made even more enjoyable, shared with two avid birding photographers with whom I had the great pleasure of meeting. #AmericanBittern #wildlife #birds #birding #nature #birdphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/BsQRBZUBpnv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gar0afk7koqp

The elusive American Bittern in stealth mode. This was an amazing sighting as these birds are very large, it was right in front of me, and we still had a hard time finding it in the hyacinths. #americanbittern #bird #heron #igersstpete #cleargram #lovefl #nature #wildlife #amazing_shots #bestbirdshots #lovebirds (at Sweetwater Wetlands Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu3dFaGgksU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=42whn78zmnje

No Match A small snake is no match for the acuity and skill of a master wetlands hunter. The American Bittern is well camouflaged and can remain so well hidden that even adept birders can sometimes pass them by, without notice. #AmericanBittern #birds #birding #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography #animals https://www.instagram.com/p/BsX4_Y6hWD_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qze08oekl6h6

I found not one but three American Bitterns yesterday. They are so elusive, hiding in the brush or reeds. This one was right in front of me! I didn't even know they had feet, you never see them! (Ok just kidding) They are a member of the heron family and quite chunky! #heron #americanbittern #udog_feathers #kings_birds #bittern #bird #nature #wildlife #chasingbirds #nikon #nikonworld #igersstpete #cleargram #lovefl #florida #ig_birds #bestbirdshots #feather_perfection
