I took this little beauty today, man are they hard to get. This little fella didnt realise I was there and flew onto the wire above my head, I was pretty excited to say the least. Arent they beautiful. I have no idea what kind of kingfisher this is and would love to hear from anyone who knows.

Lucky you! You have handled the light well and your exposure brings out the lovely colours of his plumage. They certainly are gorgeous birds. Well done.
Cheers

PS - Thanks for the txt today, I'll have to see if I can get down there tomorrow and spot a KF or two! :)

Hallo Nicki
Kingfishers will always remain my favourite bird. This is a great image of this dainty little one. I remember my first posting on Trek Nature also being a Kingfisher and a dedication to my husband Loot. Loot Eksteen I love the very blue of the sky that makes a lovely background and highlight the colours and details of the bird. A swanky little bird presented in a delightful manner. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna
