Are your Kingfisher's more approachable than mine? For some reason I can't get anywhere near one.

Beautiful image. Well done!

looks a little to tight in the frame and way over sharpened to me, can also see where you have used the history brush or whatever as there is vissible noise all around the outside of the bird
