Stunning! I have 2 outside our cottage (we live on a river bank) but I'm terrible for getting up early to take some photos, I see them around lunch time but they're too quick for me to settle down with the gear! What time of the day was this shot taken ?
Hi, this shot was taken at 06.00am ,I have to get the shots between 06.00am and 08.00am due to the river getting busy after that and chances are few and far between, after eventually locating were the kingfisher was roosting he always returned after fishing upstream, I set up the hide and sit and wait ,after placing a nice perch for him to land on...around 20feet away. Also just to let people know I am aware of the law that surrounds kingfishers and I have not and never will photograph them near a nest site.
