A gem of a bird



My first foray into wildlife photography this year, and I come up trumps with a kingfisher. Not the easiest of birds to shoot as they are quite small, and fly low and fast, but once you get to know which branches they favour along the river bank it just becomes a waiting game.

For a bird that looks this good, to me it's always worth the wait.
