    I have never seen Kingfishers with those colors before. Here in Florida there all blueish/white. Excellent timing on the wing span

    Good catch! Looks a bit soft on my monitor though.

    I am so envious. I have been looking for kingfishers for years and never found them. Where were these taken?

    Great capture.
