Kingfisher Waiting to Bolt!

Had to go back and forth along the fence line, chasing this fellow down. Just as I would get set up on it, he would take off, and so would I. Finally managed to sneak up on it and get a couple of shots off before it finally flew away out of sight.

Love this! Wish I could find one again - I've heard him down by the creek but haven't been able to spot him. Great shot with nice focus and light. Fav

those are hard buggers to catch

They are SO hard to catch. Nice catch light too
