Éxcellent film! I can hear this bird here around all the time, but really saw it first time just a week ago. It was raining and the bittern was walking through the pine forest (!) to move to another lake.
I saw it about six years ago. At Leighton Moss, I was actually chuffed, because in previous visits, all we ever knew of it was its Booming call. So to actually see it was a great accomplishment for me.
I was lucky enough to see this lovely bird at Leighton Moss in December also, unfortunatly it was only for about 5 seconds. Still a big tick on the list though :-)

i was soooooooooooooooooooooo chuffed :P
we waited for about an hour and a half in the cold to see it bit then we got a really good view of him :)
it was well worth the wait :)
