Kingfisher in Flight

The weather has been really unkind to us. Between thunder and lightning and a hail storm, we did manage to get out for an hour at low tide. The kingfishers were so busy. My 400mm prime with a 1.4 teleconverter still didn't have quite enough reach. This is the best of a bad bunch, heavily cropped to get rid of the horrible muddy background

The position of the bird to the buoy(?) in back is interesting.

I didn’t notice the bird at first! I thought it was a hook on the anchor. That’s a great capture! Sharp too.
