A great shot Braveheart!

I've never been lucky enough to even see a kingfisher in the wild never mind take a photo of one...

Fabulous photo Braveheart. I've been lucky enough to have a kingfisher perch on the tip of my fishing rod but not for long enough so I could reach for my camera.

Same here, love to even just see one.

Funny story, my manageress said to me on a day out "look a kingfisher" ,Bless her soul, well the crisp packet had the same colours flashing in the sunlight

Normally all you see is a flash of colour, seen them on river Dee and Severn. Brilliant catch.

Great capture braveheart. I've seen a kingfisher once or twice but they are gone in a flash. Well done for getting a photo of those two.
