Look What I Got!! A Kingfisher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok it's very cropped, the out of focus fence in the background looks cluttered. The dead flowerheads are not pretty and the lighting's not quite right.

BUT apart from that it's pretty perfect as it's a kingfisher and it's in focus!!

Oh well done you!! I saw my first kingfisher this year while on my brother's narrow boat, but have not photographed on as yet

What a great capture Jackie. Well done. Was that with your new telephoto? So often they are just a flash of blue. FAV.

The rest of the shot doesn't matter - it's a kingfisher, that's all that matters.
