Kingfisher
Posted by MaryB (Staffordshire, United Kingdom) on 20 January 2009 in Animal & Insect.
This has got to be one of the worst quality photo I've ever posted lol :D but I'm soooooo very pleased to have got it at all. I was totally unprepared when this tiny Kingfisher made a very unexpected appearance, whilst we were out walking by the canal.
I was thinking about yesterdays post and how i managed to get the dragonfly in focus and this Kingfisher was sooo difficult to capture lol, I'll be going back when the weather gets warmer, (I know where he is now) and my hands have thawed out, it was soooo very cold, I was shivering :D
