This is where it landed

and the uncropped version of yesterday's kingfisher.

I stayed there so long and have a few more faraway shots to share.

Nice capture, such a little bird

[Casablanca]

Ha ha, I love where he is sitting! Clearly hasn't read the sign.

[moni kozi]

This is GENIUS!

Nice to see the whole scene… what a gorgeous bird. Very colorful. I know how difficult it is to capture a shot of the kingfisher we have here in the SE US so nice work.

[winghong_ho]

Beautiful shot. I saw people use very powerful zoom lenses to capture them, so I gave up learning to take shots of birds.

[Susan Wakely]

Perfect perching place.

[Corinne C]

I love to see this picture showing me the relative size of the Kingfisher! I haven't seen one yet :-)

[Christine Sztukowski]

Lovely photo, does the kingfisher know to stay out of the water😊

[Mags]

So cute! Looks like it's been there before. =)

[Bucktree]

Perfect capture. No fear.

[Islandgirl]

[Joan Robillard]

[gloria jones]

Great shot :)

[Beverley]

Ahhhh. This is a gorgeous shot as well. Such beautiful colours

[Beryl Lloyd]

Such a lovely shot, I wonder if he is pondering what the sign says, and to whom the message applies to !! fav

[Paula Fontanini]

Smart bird!! :) Fantastic composition & impeccable timing!

[Peter]

Beautifully captured Diana:)

[Lisa Brown]

Great shot.

[Carole Sandford]

Well spotted! Great capture!

[Liz Gooster]

That's an amazing shot.

[Heather]

Such a pretty bird! I didn't realize that it's so small! The sign gives perspective, Diana, and your focus is spot-on! Fav

[Valerie Chesney]

Wonderful to see the whole scene & see how tiny this beauty is.
Such super focus! Fav

@wh2021 It is rather difficult even with my 300mm lens. I almost always have to crop a lot ;-)

[Diana]

@corinnec @radiogirl @happysnaps This one is quite big compared to the others that I have captured before.

I will post another one this week which is si much smaller. I was just lucky to see the flash of colour and where it landed ;-)

[Renee Salamon]

Perfect landing

[Olwynne]

Nice capture

[Rick]

Cool capture.
