The 100 Acre
Bittern 1 (3 on site today)
The Zeiss Hide
BITTERN (2)
One of these two Bitterns stood in the open for an amazing 7 hours in full view (10am-5pm). It caught 4 Voles durring this time and was always very close to the hide feeding on the edge of the reed bed, and at times out in the field! The other bird spent most of its time near the Kingfisher Hide.
