Water Rail Reflects

As it swims from the reeds, in a serene dash to the next area of cover. It was pottering about amongst the reeds for a couple of entertaining hours, which was amusing whilst we also scoured the reeds for the bitterns...

I'm not sure I've ever seen one swimming. A great catch and a really striking image. I love the graphic reflections of the reeds.
 
A superb capture - I'd love to get any kind of Water Rail shot! I think I got a tail once.
