Female Kingfisher -closest yet by padlock

Female Kingfisher -closest yet

Yes another Kingfisher but this one was taken at the closest I have ever been to a Kingfisher. She flew to one perch on the reserve which was a shock, then fished and finally came to a branch that was just outside the minimum focussing distance of my lens. This is one of many we took and what seemed like an age with her turned out to be about two minutes. Wonderful to see a female so close and with a fish.
Beautiful detail - I've never seen on - you are so very lucky to have caught such a great photo. Fav!

Wasn't it just stunning to see and photograph. I'd give you multiple favs for this if I could, besides I know how long you didn't bear to breathe or move to capture this
