Sacred Kingfisher


Seen by the beach today

Amateur

Top shot there Birdie, I've never been able to capture them, too fast and flighty for me. Looks like the beach is a great place for the birds!

Thanks Amateur, I saw it yesterday down there but it was darting all over the show. Today I was shooting through the trees and just messing around , while getting harrassed by 3-4 Little Wattle Birds above me LOL I got sick of them click and snapping at me and walked was walking away when I looked up and there was this beautiful little bird! It just sat there, and I stepped closer slowly ... it was amazing . In the harsh sunlight I hadn't realised how buff it was underneath.

love it Birdie. Kingfishers are great and your shot is very good. Queensland sounds like good Kingfisher country.

Cheers, Owen.
