I just returned (9:30pm) from a brief recording trip to the North Montezuma
Complex. The highlight, and reason for this post, was a pair of LEAST BITTERNs
first seen flying in and then heard counter-calling. From the tower at Guy
Baldessare (sp?) Marsh. The pitch of each bird’s song/call was dif
with care.

Michigan Hollow Marsh (Danby). Least Bittern gave just one good chuckle, well
heard. Virginia Rails grunting, Pied-billed Grebe singing, Northern Harrier
female keeping watch from her favorite spot.

Hi All,
Not a least bitten, but I saw a green heron in just about that location (flew
into the trees at the back of the first pond) a couple of weeks ago.

Hi All,
During my beginner bird walk at Sapsucker Woods yesterday morning, I met a
woman on the trail who showed me her point and shoot camera and asked me what
bird she took a photo of just minutes earlier. It looked to me like a Least
Bittern and asked her where she saw it. My group agreed to
An early morning paddle in Michigan Hollow Marsh (not North Spencer Marsh)
produced a couple of singing Marsh Wrens and a Least Bittern (flushed at very
close range!)

Hi All,
I was able to finally see and photograph the Least Bitterns at the end of the
channel on the wildlife drive. They were very furtive and it was difficult to
photograph them through the windy reeds, but I did get a few. Frogs seem to be
on the main menu. I was amazed by their huge feet for

A couple weeks ago, I went around the main dike auto tour route and saw
two Least Bittern flying by less than 10 yards apart: near the first
segment of the drive that goes north-South just where the dense cattails
open up so that you can see several hundred yards of more or less open
water. I c
Sara Jane and I went to Montezuma today in hopes of seeing LEAST
BITTERN. We were most fortunate to have one land out in the open at
"Jay's Place" across from Larue's Lagoon. It very kindly posed for us
for a whopping 20 seconds or so!! About that same time we had a fly-by
AMERICAN BITTERN.
A LEAST BITTERN is currently singing at Martens Tract (Nothern Montezuma
WMA), in the marsh heard from the dike to the right of the parking lot.

Jessie and I went Hog Hole this evening, not knowing of all the fun at
Stewart Park. In addition to excellent views of the adult Franklin's Gull,
we had what was in many ways almost a bigger surprise -- an adult male Least
Bittern that we saw in flight! I considered this to be one of my more

Considering the amazing birds that were found in the region today, (5/31)
my report is not so remarkable, but it was a personal triumph not only
to hear 2 LEAST BITTERNS at Railroad Road, I also saw one of
them three times (the cup-half-full view of losing it twice) and even
