matuku-hūrepo - australasian bittern (Botaurus poiciloptilus)

In the hidden realms of wetlands and flooded paddocks, the Bittern dwells, a master of secrecy, rarely unveiling its presence. Its cryptic nature, subtle plumage, and remote habitat keep it shrouded in mystery. But listen closely during the breeding season, and you may hear the distinctive 'booming' call of the males, a fleeting revelation of their existence. Sometimes, they grace the open edges of wetlands, drains, or roadsides, striking a pose like no other, their bill pointing skyward in their famous 'freeze' stance, even when caught in the open.
