Finally got a Kingfisher!!

[david156]

Been after seeing a Kingfisher at Strumpshaw Fen, Norfolk, for about 5 weeks now. Have been told one turns up early but I just didn't get to see it when I was there.

Well today I saw it!!!!!
It stayed outside the hide for about 50 minutes caught two fish. One it ate and the other it dropped whilst it tried to kill it.











And it was the first time i've managed to get a Kingfisher picture so a bit chuffed

Isn't Strumpshaw a wonderful place?

Great shots, I've had many a good view of those Kingfishers there too, but I dont' have the camera equipment to get the photos. Ho hum!
