Can you guess what it is?! As we arrived at Deeping Lakes we saw the Bittern fly towards us in the car park, he did a big U turn and landed at the edge of the lake close to the reeds. My camera was still in the bag as we were sat eating our picnic. We walked our usual route, over the small bridge then around the edge of a small paddock where we often see sheep grazing. Today we saw a Green Woodpecker fly across the paddock and land on a fence post. We walked through the woods to a small clearing and wanted to see over the fence, on approaching the small bush Shan stood on one side of the bush me on the other we startled the Bittern who flew away he obviously thought he was well hidden standing behind it! We stood in amazement having seen him twice in one day, and we were so close!
