Two Kingfishers

[kaz10]

This is a "Oh I wish image" for me, wished they were nearer, wished the background was better instead of the bright highlights in the water, and I wish two would come more often, but it was great to see some action for a change, not one of my best but a good thing to see.

Might not be one of your best but its still brilliant. Love the pose of the youngster, "feed me now".

Lovely shot. I have yet to find any near me.

I like this one Kaz

 

[longsight]

A great image Kaz

 

[ringyneck]

Great action/interaction image and the timing is spot on ...I hope the one did not "stab" the other ?

Is this at Brandon ?

Love the shot Kaz - I think the story it's telling over-rides any misgivings you may be feeling!

Just wish I could get any shot of a Kingfisher here - we can hear them but very elusive as the river is 'dark' with high banks and lots of trees/bushes...

What a superb pic.
I sat most nights for a week, even got up at 4 am to try and get a pic
of a Kingfisher. (Still never got it by the way.)
I even had a Hide, but camera was alwas pointing the wron way.
The highlight was a little wren came and landed on my head when i was under
the camy netting.

I will get a pic, I will ....

I know what you mean about bright highlights in the water Kaz but a very good capture none the less.

Looks good to me too Kaz. Its a bit of a different KF shot and its full of action. Good work

 

[michael23]

I need a green eyed emoticon.

I love all these pictures of kingfishers but this is even better as it's story is so clear

Looks good to me Kaz (I would say to myself what more could i ask for just one would do me this year.)

[Martyn...]

I like that it is showing the interaction between the two birds Kaz

What can one say but "Bloody Brilliant". Keep going Kaz and more power to your elbow.

2 kingy's are always better than one

great shot, as always

 

[DonnaM]

I'd be happy to see one around here let alone photograph 2 at once. Not you best eh? The composition is great so what more are you expecting Karen?

 

[kaz10]

Thanks everyone appreciate the comments

 

[erding]

Agree with you about the 'Oh I wish" on this image Karen in particular "Oh I wish it was mine" or 'Oh I wish I had even seen one"

Well captured - lovely interaction.

 

[MrGrumpy]

That's still great - the highlights don't spoilt it for me.

As has been said above, "I wish I'd taken it".
