We spotted the rare Least Bittern at the Kensington Metropark yesterday! What an amazing bird. (And difficult to photograph!)

@billchase2 Is it in the heron family? It looks like a cute little mini one. What beautiful dark markings on head and back/wings.

It is! It’s quite small: smaller than we were expecting. Maybe a little bigger than a robin. Such a cool, little bird!

@billchase2 Wow! That's even smaller than I had imagined. It's so neat and very very pretty.
