From Wikipedia:

"The stork-billed kingfisher (Pelargopsis capensis), is a tree kingfisher which is widely but sparsely distributed in the tropical Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, from India to Indonesia. This kingfisher is resident throughout its range.

 

It is a very large kingfisher, measuring 35 cm (14 in) in length.The adult has a green back, blue wings and tail, and olive-brown head. Its underparts and neck are buff. The very large bill and legs are bright red. The flight of the stork-billed kingfisher is laboured and flapping, but direct. Sexes are similar. . The call of this noisy kingfisher is a low and far reaching peer-por-por repeated about every 5 seconds, as well cackling ke-ke-ke-ke-ke-ke.

 

The stork-billed kingfisher lives in a variety of well-wooded habitats near lakes, rivers, or coasts. It perches quietly whilst seeking food, and is often inconspicuous despite its size. It is territorial and will chase away eagles and other large predators. This species hunts fish, frogs, crabs, rodents and young birds.

Adults dig their nests in river banks, decaying trees, or tree termite nests. A clutch of two to five round white eggs is typical."

Rocks Clouds and Reflections on a Autumn afternoon.

I was not going to post this one folks but it was the second image taken in the sequence so here it is. It was very exciting to say the least, usually we see it after the fact, but got it this time.

Thank you for stopping by and have a super day.

An amazing winterweek here in Holland. I have spent all my photo time in the neighborhood as there were so many pretty places to visit with the fresh snow. This moment was just after heavy snowfall when the sun came through in the Amsterdam forest.

 

Thanks for your kind comments and favs, I always enjoy them a lot.

Garden, Groningen, The Netherlands

Few more rays of morning before entering the shadows again. I know that the path will lead me there, sooner or later. At least it is with welcoming gateway of light embracing me before falling into darkness.

sunlight through the door shining upon my parents wedding photo.

It was so magical couldn't pass up capturing it.

"Just" a Flower in the morning Sun...

With the sun rising behind the bushes I got lovely rays in the sky and also nice sunlight coming down the track. With bonus mist in the distance illuminating the cows in the bush tunnel.

Sunray was an anti-gravity racer in the mid to late 21st century. Light and fast, with a large engine, it won a series of races. However, its main fame came from its bright and distinctive colour scheme.

This was so awesome to see, I had to pull over on the Interstate and take some shots before it went away.
