At first I thought this was a bittern the way it was behaving but the head was not right. Is it a Watercock? Neil Mai Po Nature Reserve, Hong Kong, China. 19/09/06 Olympus 7070wz plus Swarovski STS80HD scope and Sw 30x eyepiece and DCA adapter

Yes it is a Watercock, Neil. Not perhaps one for the purist photographers, but captures the modus operandi of this species very well. Mike
