I must have missed this, so glad i have had the opportunity to see these wonderful images.
All are great but the first two really hit the spot for me. As you say light makes such a difference to plumage and the kingy is one of those species that often look so different.
Excellent set Karen, thanks for sharing these.

Thanks everyone
 
Gobsmacked, what a stunning series of shots, really shows the beauty of the stunning little bird, I going to be camping out now at the local park. Thanks for sharing.
 
100% ace. It has made me want to striv to get better ones with my old 600mm
 
For me the reward for these shots are the fruitless hours upon hours that the photographer can spend waiting for the bird to show up, often lost in the 1/1000 of a second that captures the image.

Forget needing a 500mm lens, its the patience of a saint that is required.

Kaz, I have put some posts up by the first hide at Belvide, hopefully if the water level rises (you can walk out to the raft in front of the 1st hide still), we may get some obliging KF's using them. I shall let you know if they do (y)
 
Wow!!!!!!!!!!! you have captured the essence of one of IMO possibly our most enigmatic birds. Absolute stunners especially the inflight ones(y):clap:
 
Another set of amazing shots, beautiful lighting :clap:
