On the Scottish Wildlife website is a new pic of a (presumably) commercial photographer's shot of a kingfisher in action. For some reason it won't let me put it on here but it's very good.
I saw a kingie once upon a time for quite a long period. It was down at Castle Combe one summer evening; a tiny river-type flows through the village and a kingie was fishing from the bank.
Lots of folk were watching it and it took no notice.
Brilliant !! You don't forget things like that.
When I saw the topic title I thought we were going to have a first sighting in a members garden Very photogenic are Kingfishers and will supply many opportunities to the patient and the skilled
I want to cross off the kingfisher on my photo bucketlist this year if I can. I know a spot in N Wales that I'm planning a trip to on a reserve that is known for them. Fingers crossed!
I went to the Slimbridge reserve a couple of years ago hoping to spot them but blanked.
Won't work for me. However, if you google 'Shane Hardy Photography', on his Facebook site there are a sequence of the kingfisher pix which are causing me so much trouble !!
but it's very good.
