EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness an adorable immature male Von Schrencks Bittern in its first winter plumage emerging from a lush reedbed in Long Valley, Hong Kong. With its fluffy feathers and curious expression, it's as if this little fellow is playing a game of hide-and-seek with us! As the vibrant colors of autumn surround him, our feathered friend stands out with his unique markings and slender beak. Despite being just a juvenile, he exudes confidence as he ventures into the wetlands of Asia. The reeds sway gently in the breeze behind him, creating a picturesque backdrop for this marvelous moment captured by FLPA photographer John Holmes. It's almost as if nature itself has painted the perfect setting for our protagonist to make his grand debut. With each step forward through the marshland and wetlands, this Von Schrencks Bittern showcases both resilience and grace. His journey symbolizes growth and exploration in the vast tropical landscape that China offers. So let's celebrate this charming bird who reminds us all to embrace new beginnings and emerge from our own metaphorical reedbeds with courage and curiosity!
