Air Supremacy (Alcedo atthis)

An early morning display by a couple of these birds was a real treat. I only wish their hovering antics were a lot closer. Hopefully for another day :)

I've been off line a lot for a few months and missed so many of your shots Tom and feeling the poorer for having done so. Been looking through your gallery at what I've missed and now I'm just green all over. So much beautiful stuff, well done and hope there is lots more in future.
