Very nice captures, Peter!!
A Belted Kingfisher is on my list to shoot, and you've set a high standard with these. Thanks for sharing them!

Great job, Peter. I am pleased that you were able to do this with the Tamron. Granted he was hovering, but that does not mean stationary. We have these at the river below the local dam, and I hope to get out there and get some shots of Kingfishers (and Eagles) soon. Great inspiration!

It's hard to get close to these guys! The Tamron is a real winner as these shots prove.
