Yup, April should be OK for booming, though I have heard them later - but hey!, never assume you will see or hear a bittern even at Minsmere, then you can't be disapointed
The Spring bank holiday rains, with 10cm overnight rise in water levels, made for a very bad "bittern year" last year - the eggs got cooled or the chicks waterlogged
But another meet sounds great.
