A pied kingfisher (Ceryle rudis) was giving his fish catch some nasty thrashes on the bamboo log before the feast. Fortunately it hunted right in front of my boat and continued the process of fish handling for some time. Unfortunately I could not manage a more closer frame due to hyacinth blockage. The bokeh transitions on backdrop made it like a painting! Pics was taken from Purbasthali, West Bengal, India.
I spent time with a pair of obliging Sacred Kingfishers hunting on a farm roadside next to the Snowy River. They demolished an amazing amount of crickets, dragonflies and spiders. Here was one prized 8-legged catch. It looked particularly juicy.

With mismatching number boards, BCOL 4620 hustles a small train 406, by the old train station in Rothesay, New Brunswick. It's a requirement for me to get out and shoot as many of these cowls as possible before they end up in storage. The fact that this leader is a BC Rail cowl makes it that much better.

The early morning sun, just a short walk before work to breath, to have a wide view.
It was a long day but I ended it like it started ;-)
For a brief moment, the sun illuminated the Burlington lift bridge. I stitched together a few shots and liked the way the pylons curve into the distance.
Well, it certainly gave me that impression, however, the hook had simply become snagged on a rock.
Ten points if you can spot the float…
Take one sheet of A4 paper, a few wisps of cotton wool, apply Sellotape and switch on LED torch!
Took quiet a few of these for the MM book theme, just thought I’d share another!
This is one of my favourite photos from the summer of 2017. I watched the Osprey circle then dive after a fish. As it rose from the water, it flew directly toward my location, gaining in height.

An osprey rises out of the Indian River Inlet in coastal Delaware, a fresh catch clutched in its talons. I was camping at Delaware Seashore State Park, and as evening settled in and the tide began to shift, a group of ospreys started circling over the inlet. I grabbed my camera and the longest zoom lens I had with me, then found a spot along the rocky bank to watch for a while. It was a beautiful time of day, calm and golden, with the birds diving one after another into the water in search of a meal.
I was firing off shots as best I could, trying to track whichever bird flew into frame. Most of them veered away, but this one came up and, for a brief moment, was angled straight toward me. When I reviewed the burst later, I was happy to see that I had managed to capture part of the action just after its dive.
I do not usually photograph birds or spend much time bird-watching, but that evening reminded me how peaceful it can be to sit by the water, watch, and try to capture a small piece of the rhythm unfolding around you.

In the chilly hours and minutes
Of uncertainty, I want to be
In the warm hold of your loving mind
To feel you all around me
And to take your hand, along the sand
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
