Yes, build it and they will come. I hope we get more of these beautiful booming male Bitterns in Wales.Thank you for the vid, I enjoyed it.

We heard one last Tuesday at RSPB Middleton Lakes near Tamworth. First time that we had heard one and it was a very distinctive "boom". It had been spotted by the RSPB staff and was on their noticeboard.

very nice video, the Bittern is my dream bird to see as I have only heard it

[@jimbojet8728]

Top notch vid from a top notch organisation. Thank you RSPB. I’ve never heard or seen a Bittern, oh how I’d love to.

[@JustOneKnight]

What an awesome looking bird.

[@BlobFishIsNotABot]

Where i live, there are loads of them walking about, they make this really cool boom.

[@robertgilmour1903]

I wonder if Bitterns ever made it to Northern Ireland?

[@govinda6813]

Love this Bird!

[@paulwalker4966]

I heard something like this the other day. Certainly not heard anything like it,before. Is there anything else,it could be?

NZ's Kakapo also booms.

[@PeterLanglands]

Yes great video. I research Australasian bitternn and we have 3 males to 1 female andcfear that predation of breeding females may be a major issue. Aiming to create more habitat here in N Z
