Animal Conservationists claim Boom Time for Bitterns!

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Animal Conservationists are reporting a boost in the number of Bittern sightings in the UK. The harsh winter cold has brought the rare birds to the UK in higher numbers this year as they attempt to escape the freezing conditions on the Continent.

The Bittern population in the UK was critical at the end of the 90’s as only 11 males were recorded in 1997. The RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) recorded 82 males last year and believes the influx this year to be treble that! Bitterns are quite elusive wading birds and are known by the booming calls made by the males that can be heard miles away. The snow has made them easier to spot and there have been sightings all over the UK from the Channel Isles to the West Midlands and Wales.

To mark the decline in numbers of this wonderful bird, students at St Martins College of Arts in London developed a series of eco wallpapers for Graham & Brown which are one of our leading sellers. Perhaps they should now be seen as a celebration of the return of the Bitterns to the UK in greater numbers! Let’s hope they are here to stay!
