Nice one Gary.

The day I tire of seeing a Kingfisher is the day I know to give this hobby up. They are stunning birds.
 
Unlucky Gary!!!

Hi Gary!

First of all well done on seeing the kingfishers, I saw my first recently too at pennington flash. second of all I went to marshside aswell to hopefully see the 3 spoonbills I was gutted when I didnt, I had been keeping track of them all week, via the internet.

better luck next time!

2 Kingfishers this morning, and again this evening. The female was perched on her favourite branch just waiting for the fish to show. great to see them fishing. It must be a good sign for the river, this pair have shown well for a good few months.
