White throated kingfisher
With a crab plucked from a rice paddy, Tangalle, Sri Lanka
This is the first of many Sri Lankan birds I will be posting from our recent trip there in November 2014.
I want to thank Jagath Perera, our guide and driver throughout our time in Sri Lanka, for his excellent ability to get me where I needed to be to track down some birds. He has a very keen eye and often spotted birds I had missed. This shot was due to Jagath's remarkable patience in ferrying me up and down a causeway near this rice paddy. We used the car as a blind and eventually this was the result.
I have no hesitation recommending Jagath to anyone travelling to Sri Lanka, both for birds or just on a holiday. He was fantastic, always reliable and professional, and a fount of knowledge about the local scene! He can be reached at: 0094774423726/jagathguide@hotmail.com/www.srilankantourguides.com
Thanks again, Jagath!!
