The Kingfisher ( alcedo atthis )
Have not been able to find any new specimens at the moment so how about this one from the happier times.
Also trying out new presentation and processing.

Quote: One of if not your best
I have to agree, an absolutely AMAZING shot!!!! Have my award too!
one of the nicest i have ever seen everything is perfect
Outstanding, every so often you see a shot that takes your breath away, and this is one. Re you trying out presentation and processing - 10/10 its perfect. I hope you get the top award. Ann
for a moment I thought you had a NEW siting of the KF he has been seen apparently two people have told me and it wasnt Alan but in our vicinity (keep your eyes peeled) I like the new presentation and processing is great, fancy giving me a lesson then?
magnificent ! what your secret to catching this gorgeous bird
They don't come any better than this Ron, an outstanding shot and the only thing wrong with it is that it isn't mine 
Geoff.
A splendid capture - a cracker. Super detail, and the presentation is also very good.

An outstanding image Ron, this one is straight out of the top drawer. I don't think you'll find a better shot of this species on this site
Wish I had one of these in my collection Ron....cracking shot with fab colours n excellent background too.
Hi Ron, I have been watching the progress on this one with fingers, legs and everything else that I can cross and am delighted that justice has prevailed here. My user award is not available or I would have given mine too, many congratultions on the user awards and especially for the long overdue HC,
Kind regards,
Geoff.
Congratulations Ron...long time coming but glad to see the extra bit at the top of your gallery!

Congratulations on the well deserved award Ron.
The detail in this shot is absolutely the best....WOW.
We have belted kingfishers here but they are nowhere near as beautiful, they also hardly let me in close.
Awesome shot !
