EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a mouthful! This Great Bittern knows how to make the most of its mealtime at Minsmere RSPB Reserve. With a Three-spined Stickleback firmly gripped in its beak, this bird is proving that it's not afraid to go big or go home when it comes to dining on the Suffolk coast. Feasting on fresh fish straight from the Atlantic waters, this adult Bittern showcases its impressive fishing skills and reminds us why it's known as one of Britain's finest coastal predators. With its sleek feathers and sharp eyesight, it effortlessly navigates the marshes and wetlands of East Anglia in search of prey. As spring arrives in England, so does an abundance of food for our feathered friend. The reed beds provide the perfect hiding spot for both predator and prey, creating a thrilling game of hide-and-seek among nature's finest. This photo capture by FLPA/Paul Sawer perfectly encapsulates the beauty and diversity found within our British wildlife. From the vibrant colors of the Bittern's plumage to the shimmering scales of its catch, every detail tells a story worth celebrating. So next time you find yourself strolling along Minsmere Reserve or any other picturesque wetland area in Europe, keep your eyes peeled for these magnificent creatures. Who knows what incredible moments you might witness – just like this unforgettable snapshot!
