Kingfisher photos - superb.
Birds in flight - often fabulous.
But a Kingfisher in flight - just stunning.

Great job and well done.

That is a Cracker Jack

Lakenheath Fen is good for king fishers but not been able to get anything close to your shot

Great catch - I was visiting the reserve a couple of weeks ago and was pleased just to catch the Kingfisher in a record shot - your image here certainly trumps mine!
