Kingfisher

Had a walk round lake Hakano this morning, when I suddenly spotted this kingfisher. He didn't hang around long enough for anything but a quick snap. They're totally different to our British counterparts, and always remind me of small kookaburra's.

I'm used to European kingfishers so this is very interesting to see. You did well to spot him and make the shot.
