Kingfisher

I went back to the public hide with a KF nest yesterday in very dreary conditions but the KF's were very obliging and i managed a few images, I have now located a KF nest on my local river so hope to start getting some better shots there

Absolutely lovely composition and light. If anything I find the grass like strand on the far right a little distracting where it overlaps the branch - draws the eye quite a bit. Tristan

Nice shot of a young male Dave look forward to seeing more.

Agree with Tristan about the grassy bit and the head looks a teeny weeny tad soft to me Dave, just not quite as sharp as the body.

But the comp is a cracker with the eyeline perfectly aligned with the branch and that BG is lovely.

Looking forward to seeing the next ones Dave

HI Dave,

Lovely Kingfisher shot!
Nice to see the white tip at the bill wich is used so the parents can find them in the nest whilst feeding the youngsters.
