Hunting Bittern

A Yellow Bittern (Ixobrychus sinensis) is captured on film...er... digital media...
while fishing. I was surprised how long and flexible the Bittern's neck could be.

The Sigma EF 500 DGS flash impressed me as it was able to handle the continuous burst well.
The first 8 images (1671 to 1678) were in successive, intermittent burst mode. All others were
shot in random manner. All pics were taken at the Tambo mudflats, Paranaque City, Philippines.
