Secretive, uncommon, and well camouflaged, the American Bittern can be hard to find. If you are in a marshy area and hear something that sounds similar to a frog but it's not, it may be this bird.

Please Mr. Ichiro Kitao, give me a Wildlife Zoom camera (WZ) with a 200 - 1200mm reach and able to take a TC, and with a fast lens and all the goodies to make it fast operationally.

Happy holidays to you Vickie, and thank you keeping this thread going!

Unlike the Lesser Goldfinch (much smaller) which are plentiful throughout the year, we don't get many of these American Goldfinches here. Strictly winter visitors, I think.
