EDITORS COMMENTS
Can you spot me? This American Bittern is the master of disguise in the saltmarshes of Long Island, New York! With its incredible camouflage skills, it effortlessly blends into the coastal landscape, making it almost impossible to detect. In this stunning print captured by Bob Gibbons, we get a rare glimpse of this elusive bird as it hides among the saltmarsh grasses. As autumn sets in and nature prepares for winter, this adult American Bittern finds solace in the marshlands along the eastern seaboard. Its long beak and mottled plumage perfectly match its surroundings, allowing it to seamlessly disappear into its habitat. Long Island's saline marshes provide an ideal sanctuary for these magnificent birds. The brackish waters and abundant wildlife make it a haven for both migratory and resident species alike. It's no wonder that North America's bittern population thrives here! So next time you find yourself strolling along Long Island's coastlines during November, keep your eyes peeled for these hidden treasures. But beware - spotting an American Bittern requires sharp observation skills! They may be masters at hiding, but with patience and a keen eye, you might just catch a glimpse of their remarkable beauty.
