Nice,

The diffused background in the first Kingy series is very sweet.

Lovely stuff, thanks for sharing

Hi Dougie,

These are stunning shots of this beautiful kingfisher.

I have been chasing kingfishers for the last 18 months or so and I've not managed to get anywhere near as good as these.

I'm off early in the morning to try again :thumbs:

Really wonderful shots, Dougie. Looks like it's a creature of habit, sticking to the same vantage points to perch? Thanks for posting.
