Bitterns

A wading and fishing bird found in the deltas of northwestern Endor, the bittern, or northern heron, is known for its strange resonant, mournful cry. It is slow, cunning, deliberate hunter that feeds on snakes, crustaceans, and fish. Bitterns migrate, spending their winters in the wetlands along the temperate seacoasts and their summers in the lakes and deltas of the North.
