I’m a stick
This is an American Bittern bird. In the photo it is trying to blend in as a stick or branch. The bird was hunting around our pond for a meal. Little I knew that there was a second one in the area that I couldn’t see (not pictured). They blend in so well most times.
My name is Kay and I am 57 yrs old and nature photography is a hobby I love to do.
