Due to a sieve like memory, I had completely forgotten I had taken this grab back in June. Any chance of an ID on it please. We had been hearing what I think were Bitterns booming but this doesn't look quite drab enough to my (VERY inexpert!) eyes.
No need to point out the inadequacies of the shot - it was very much a grab and is a heavy crop from an 18-200 on a V1 so pushing way beyond the limits of the equipment.
If it helps, it was taken at a freshwater lake on Crete at roughly noon. The bird stood about 18" tall (at a guess).
