| | | Kingfishers + bird id?
Hello people,
have not been on site for a while, so iv'e missed a lot of going's on.
I see yesterday the thread on kingfishers, so i thought i would share a couple of pictures i had taken recently at Rye meads, the pictures are not great, but i was fortunate to catch a pair mating, plus Territorial chase off.
The other two pics is one white throat, but i don't know if it is a common white throat or lesser white throat.
The last pic i need an id, Thankyou.     |

Looks like a young Whitethroat. The last photo is a singing Wren. |

Hi Tokka,
it may be the way the light was shining on the feathers.
Kingfishers are almost brown in colour in the dark, but a bit of light and wow! | | |
