Beautiful Bittern Flying

There is great news for wildlife in the UK this week!


It has been announced that Bitterns have been found breeding in Sefton, in England. This is the first time that Bitterns have been found breeding in Sefton for 200 years.


The Bitterns were found breeding in a nature reserve called Lunt Meadows.

The Lunt Meadows nature reserve is just a newly established nature reserve, as it was only created 10 years ago. Therefore, it is showing success early in its creation.


It is great news that this nature reserve is already having a massive success like this, especially as Bitterns are an endangered species in the UK.


There are only 200 breeding pairs of Bitterns in the UK today, which makes these beautiful birds one of the rarest birds and animals in the UK.


Hopefully, these beautiful birds can continue making a comeback!
