A Eurasian Bittern stands among thick reeds, only its head, neck and breast visible. This is a medium-sized, thick set heron with pale, buff-brown plumage covered with dark streaks and bars. The crown of its head is black and it has a black moustache. It's standing very still in a typical pose, with its neck extended and its head lifted so its bill is at about 45° to the horizontal. This, and its cryptic colouring, help it to remain camouflaged among the reeds where it's usually found.

A Whooper Swan stands on muddy ground at the Rushy Pen at WWT Slimbridge. It's a large white swan, with a long pointed bill that gives it a straight profile. There's a large patch of yellow on the otherwise black bill, extending below the nostril and ending in a sharp point. There are Lapwings around and behind the swan, and a Shelduck swimming in the water behind and to the left.
