Arthur looking handsome after his moult has finished.
Taken today in blasting sunshine.
Very difficult conditions.
I remember last year until October, kingfisher pictures did not get really good.
Apart from the spring, breeding season, the winter is the time to photograph the kingfishers.

Despite the conditions, you have another masterpiece shot of Arthur and his catch: he does look quite splendid again, Allan.

Another absolutely fabulous image Alan.
It's always nice when they do something other than sit on a branch, even if it is only holding food. It just adds that little extra to a shot.

You really are the kingfisher king. Smile
