This is the final shot of a sequence I got this morning of the male Kingfisher passing the (the gift) to the female Kingfisher ,I watched it all unfold ,I have witnessed this previously and also got distance shots but on this occasion I got lucky as the preformed it on a perch I had put up,i observe the birds all year round particular the male and I put perches up up and down the river in his territory ,I know all his favourite areas and just gamble with a perch as I did this morning ,I already had the perch set up by 5.30am mainly just in hope I could witness some activity ...View attachment 36487

The last time I got that close was a lot of years when two landed on my fishing rod. A beautiful little bird, and of course a fantastic shot.
