One of the best images I have seen of this species. Unique and a very nice angle.
Just nitpicking, I would move it to the right and add a bit of contrast.
Well done.

Wow. Great bittern image. Around here I never see them except half-hidden in marsh reeds, and then only rarely. Wonderful pose, snow flurries, bg. Another vote for Dan K's suggestions above.

Unique seeing some snow with the bittern, I like that alot. I like the grassy FG too. If anything I'd add some top and left if you have it, but it is good as is too. Thanks for participating in the theme!
