Aust. Bittern Sighting

["Dean Cutten" <>]

Yesterday afternoon (15/8) I had to go up at Mt Barker and while there I 
spent an hour at the Laratinga Wetlands and was fortunate to have good 
viewings of a very cooperative Australasian Bittern. With the bird at times 
only 30 ft away in the open I was able to study the plumage and see it in 
different poses. The only drawback was I didn't take the camera and with 
sunny breaks between showers could have got some good photos.
