Great Bittern Photography
Photographing the Great Bittern is a real test of patience and fieldcraft, and it's a species NaturesLens is glad to bring within range of your lens. Notoriously secretive, this heron relies on stillness and cover, so the well-designed hides used on this holiday give you the best possible chance of a clean, close view without disturbing your subject.
