Little bittern

Little bittern (Ixobrychus minutus)

Great bitterns are bad enough, but how about a bird with the same attitude but so much smaller?
Seeing these is hard enough, photographing these is near-impossible. My patience paid off eventually when the bird perched right next to a hide, but in a minute, it was gone again
