Common Kingfisher DSC_5676

Common Kingfisher / alcedo atthis. Mapperley Wood, Derbyshire. 01/02/17.

 

BEST VIEWED LARGE.

 

Not the best of images by any means, but an exciting record shot for me at my local NR.

This male Kingfisher arrived, unannounced, and perched momentarily on the wooden post in front of the hide. I've never seen one here before although wasn't too surprised as they frequent the reservoir very close by.
