Good morning. Well, it's that time of year when bitterns start getting quite visible on the reserve. In honour of that, here are some wonderful pictures of bitterns that have been taken on the reserve during the last week or so:

All of these images have been taken from Mere Hide.
Whilst on the subject of images, here are some more great pictures from the last week:

Thank you very much to Les, Heather, Stephen, Ann, Matt and Scott for sharing these wonderful images with us.
I will return with a more detailed recent sightings post later on in the week.
We hope to see you soon!
