[Tweeters] American Bittern - Short Video

[RW Hamlyn]

I recently shot a (very) short video of an American Bittern and a “poor” frog.  We recently viewed at least two (and maybe a third one) of these elusive and interesting birds at 212th St Ponds, which is now called American Bittern Ponds.  This video shows a typical example of the way members of the heron family catch, prepare and eat prey from what we have observed. Note how it skips the salad portion that came with the frog!
