Love Bittern is a project dedicated to empowering community-led conservation of Australasian bittern | Matuku-hūrepo (Botaurus poiciloptilus) in Aotearoa, New Zealand.

It takes a community to save a species. By acting now to restore their wetland homes we are helping all species, including ourselves, dependent on wetlands!
