Kingfishers from yesterday

bromm · 12th of August 2007 (Sun)

Family and I were driving yesterday, I stopped on a local bridge as I seen a Kingfisher fly under it .It surprised me by coming up the same side and landing on the bridge rail, not wanting to take a chance and scare it while changing settings, I fired as is. The second one it was hovering looking for food.
