Bittern at Marsworth

A trip to Tring reservoirs with Anna & Harry looks to be a yearly event!
A few of the usual birders around including Roy & Steve - Steve located a BITTERN on Marsworth and I connected through my scope - and Anna saw it too :) Harry was asleep.
Bumped into LGRE on the way back to the car - who then headed towards Steve to get a look at one of two Bittern showing.
Among other New Year birds for the list - RED CRESTED POCHARD, POCHARD, LITTLE GREBE and TEAL
When we returned home the moon was shining bright - with Venus just below. I took a shot through the scope
