I've been asked a few times if I have a bittern, well meet the bittern who has joined the Wild Woolley Friends Collection now to make a few more.
Made from ethically sourced wool and bio-nylon, it stands at approx 5cm tall.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay is #BestOfTheMonth, your best bird capture of March.
A #bittern
A Bittern standing in green marsh plants. Bitterns are medium sized herons with white and shades of brown markings. Long sharp beaks.
@alan678.bsky.social #BirdOfTheDay theme is #speckled any bird with speckled markings. The alt is #oneleg any bird standing on one leg. Here's the often hard to spot Bittern with its speckled feather patterns #Birds #Bittern #Heron
Funny call and behavior of a secretive wading bird that is difficult to spot:
American Bittern.

An American bittern strides through the reeds, partially obscured and very well camouflaged. Its piercing yellow eye can be seen through the stalks.
The bittern from a few weeks ago at Fernhill wetlands. So stealthy! #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #herons #bittern #pdx #pnw

The usually shy American bittern was on the path we walk. The herons were mostly at the rookery, but some were out getting provisions. And the signs of spring were all around. (Sorry the bittern photo does not do this handsome bird justice!)
We watched this American #Bittern as it hunted its way along the #RNWR autoroute for over 30 minutes. Disappointed for the 20+ cars that sped by and didn't see it. Here it was watching an Eagle fly overhead.

The American Bittern is an ambush hunter... it's camouflage matches the brown foliage as it plucks unsuspecting prey out of the waters.

Late today! Today’s #BirdOfTheDay ALT theme is #LongNecks any bird with a long neck. #birds #photography #ECK
A #bittern last week 🙌
A fairly large brown bird is standing in the water of a small pond on Hulls Falls Road. This little pond attracts a lot of wetland birds, and it’s a reliable place to see some adorable ducklings in the spring. It’s near Keene in the High Peaks region of the Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York
The #birdoftheday theme for today is #standinginwater. Here’s an #AmericanBittern standing in water in a small pond in the #Adirondacks. 5 September 2018. wildadirondacks.org/adirondack-b...

We drove past this American #Bittern twice before being it while striking a fish.
Perfect camouflage for a successful #fishing endeavor.

Roerdomp in het riet / Bittern in the reeds.
Vorige week een rondje #LocalPatch gedaan en dat bracht een leuke verrassing. Bij een klein plasje vond ik een roerdomp! Eerste roerdomp die ooit als ter plaatse is gemeld in mijn patch. Leuk ook voor de #GroeneJaarlijst, die nu op 57 staat. #roerdomp #bittern #BirdsSeenIn2026
Such incredible elusive birds!

Super cropped and noisy image, yet stillI seen! Little Bittern seen in Extremadura last year . Unlike the local Bittern that I dipped (check me and the lingo 😆) yesterday. All part of the fun. Would love to hear that boom! Another time…. #littlebittern #Bittern #extremadura #twitching

Compilation of 6 photos of sketchbook pages. Top row consists of sketches of European badgers, chameleons and bittern. Bottom row consists of drawings of dik-diks, sea turtles and shoebill cranes.
A collection of Detox Doodles!
I've developed the habit of daily sketching to help replace mindless scrolling!

Sketchbook page of 6 drawings of Bitterns in pink pen. The top of the page has the text 6/4/25 and Bittern. The top left is a drawing of a bittern standing and a heart and the word Odd. To the right is a Bittern with its neck outstretched to the right and the word Long. To the right of it is a closeup of a bird looking down at the viewer with its beak up. At the bottom left is a bittern in profile standing and looking to the right. To the right is a round bird with the word Derp. Below is a bittern standing on two branches with legs splayed and the word Splits!
Detox Doodles!
This is my daily sketching habit in an effort to curb mindless scrolling.
This page is about Bitterns! SO ODD.

Even standing right in front of you, it can be missed! The American Bittern is peak bird-nerd joy! Its cryptic plumage makes it rewarding to find! #🪶

Illustration of a Bittern, wading through water against a deep blue sky. Behind the bird is a blue paper texture with gradients at the top and bottom of darker blue. Surrounding the bird is a double halo of white light, as well as a bokeh lighting effect in yellows and dark browns.
I made this yesterday: a Bittern.
