Its not that they are few and far between, but I have never actualy photographed one before Oh well thats one more off my list. Thanks for looking.

Nice and sharp, and a good job on the exposure

I think their eyes are great, especially if you can get a close up.

You've really caught that well in a nice setting Rich
I would be tempted to trim a tad off the left side.

Thanks Martyn, I was tucked up waiting for the Kingfisher but yet again it failed to show

Thanks Ant, that branch carried on out to the left of the picture but I had to clone it out as it was totaly overexposed where the sun was shining on it. Cropped version as requested

nice capture.

Thanks
