Bittern shows well at Marazion
The Bittern showed well today at Marazion (very well when I wasn't there!) Apparently it walked the full length of the marsh over 45 minutes, completely in the open at 8 am. I caught up with it around 1.30-2pm down at the water level post. The marsh was frozen and as a result the snipe were on the grass feeding and I caught a quick glimpse of a water rail also that broke cover. Buzzard doing his customary low pass spooking everything. Today was slightly warmer as the icey wind had dropped but I still froze my ass off. I need to get some more gloves I think, like these http://www.naturescapes.net/store/aquatech-sensory-gloves.html they look ideal for photographers. Well onto the images from today.
