Oh lucky you! I'm all green (and blue and orange!) with jealousy - no seriously a great capture!

Thanks Pauline! It's been a long time coming! I've been trying to capture Kingfishers for months, went twice this week to a local site, saw them but never perched, then I get them totally unexpectedly. That's the magic of wildlife, you never know what you'll get.
