Belted Kingfisher

Appreciated this bird's patience. I caught sight of him perched over some wetland without a camera*. We finished our walk, did some shopping, went home and got the camera, bid the wife farewell and optimistically went off to the place i last saw him. And there he was. He took off after 7 shots but i appreciated him waiting for me.

 

* I know about the syntax issue here, and no I was not referring to the bird without a camera or worse the wetlands without a camera but to write "I, without a camera, caught sight ..." sounds like i just finished talking to Shakespeare about his latest play.
