A thickset heron with all-over bright, pale, buffy-brown plumage covered with dark streaks and bars. It flies on broad, rounded, bowed wings. A secretive bird, very difficult to see, as it moves silently   more...through reeds at water's edge, looking for fish. The males make a remarkable far-carrying, booming sound in spring. Its dependence on reedbeds and very small population make it a Red List species - one of the most threatened in the UK.
In Broadland the storm resulted in a 2000 feet breach in the sandhills at the Hundred Stream north of Winterton. The flooded area extended to 7500 acres, the depth varying from a few inches to over eight feet in the deepest parts. Only three bitterns nests were found that spring in the affected area, 'birds being absent in areas where they had bred and boomed for the past 20 years.'

These enigmatic birds faced further problems during three consecutive severe winters beginning in 1940. Worse was to follow: 1947 is still remembered as outstanding for the intensely cold, long, winter. Periodic blizzards buried all reedbeds. A number of bitterns died of starvation, but the survivors bred successfully both at Cley and in the Broads.

Cley suffered a further inundation on the night of January 31 1953, the marsh flooding to a dept of 10 to 12 feet. Yet that spring Billy Bishop recorded two bitterns' nests. And despite the sea breach at Palling the Broadland boomers also survived.


No further bittern surveys were organised locally until 1970 (following a rapid colonisation in East Norfolk of foxes), and again six years later. The first showed an alarming decline. The second confirmed a situation exceeding worst expectations. But why the decline? Mainly a combination of the drying-out of reedbeds, a decline in available food and an increase in water pollution.

What are a bittern's ideal needs and how can Continental ones wintering here be tempted to say and breed? According to the authoritative 'Birds of the Western Palearctic' bitterns favour the dense cover of reedbeds contained sheltered shallow water...usually avoiding older and drier stands of reed...and tolerating brackish water where the sea has broken in.

Fortunately concerted action has been taken to rescue the bittern from the brink of extinction as a breeding bird. The Norfolk Wildlife Trust has joined the RSPB, English Nature and the Environment Agency in a series of ambitious projects to, not only restore reedbeds but also to create large new ones. The work involves providing areas of open water with reed fringes, widening dykes and constructing banks to raise water levels. It would be a tragedy to again lose nesting bitterns as happened by the middle of the last century.

During the years of abundance the country's leading bird photographers came to Broadland. Sitting in tiny hides for long periods, they were privileged to observe the domestic life of the mysterious bittern. Their photographs confirm it was frequent to find nests in deeply flooded reedbeds with water lapping the nest edges. One Hickling nest was built on the top of an abandoned coot's nest and in water so deep that the keeper had difficulty in reaching it clad in thigh waders.

Normal progress of a bittern is performed not on the ground but by grasping reeds - several at a time - with the huge toes. This stilt-like movement is remarkably effortless for so comparatively large a bird.

In times of a shortage of food nestling bitterns will turn cannibal and devour the smallest in a brook. One young bird, handled after wandering, readily disgorged a leg and thigh of a former brother or sister.  less

Useless vlogging with canine crying.

eyes spark pointing out the dark

stars mark you as lines connect

coming together with strict precision

determining your vision

man left behind as an intermission

a print of the starsystem

in the reflecting   more...eye All seems fly

as we link earth to the sky

and buy the lie of purpose and higher ends

pain is what is send

then we come around to make amends

yet the hurting doesnt stop

just some time before it comes up again

and you need to rub it off a friend

so you can close the gap as you catch up

talking about the golden days and the old ways

tricked and circling in mind stuff

shuffling around with the same buff

glistening instead of listening


wading through the myst

exposing the glitches

of mind consciousness systems

that are waiting for a nod

only seeing what has been thought

not questioning any thoughts

staying lost at all cost

refusing the confrontation

strifing for some kind of elation

percieving reality as an estemation

living life as an approximation

Filling in what has alread been set

creating self as an on and off led

as we cant keep it steady

not realising the repeating rally

nothing changes at the end of the day

we remain observers of decay

looking at my watch

seeing seconds tick

minutes click

the hour sticks

and flicks another date

the calender inflates

time is presented in bits and pieces

making you the final theses

playing a ball game in a dance of rules and names

aiming for the hole in the one and only

relationships based on flicks and switches changing in the nick of time turning hands on the clock non stop

better get up before you miss the champagne clashing and bubbles popping on the dock as you get off the slipway to set sail gliding down the endless rail

fetch the early sun in the morning

while The moon still gleams and rays are not straight

playing before the start of a new day

my eyes are twitching

but im here listening

silence sings in my ears

as the sleepingrings disappear

I breath myself into the flesh

pressing steps

taking depth

releasing debt

with every breath

closing in on death

living out the aftermath

passed on from father to sun

creation has been set and done

all i have to do is pull the gun

and do it all again

coming round as man has scattered the earth

but is yet to be birthed

as we hit bin after bin

and believe in sins we stay in the tin

drifting in the ocean as mind consciousness systems

a prison for the living, the ulimate reception into denial of the rest so only nets of self deception catch our attention

cant we start living the sequel

all as one and equal
