I saw an amazing site of a Pied Wagtail chasing a Kingfisher at Cley last week, it chased the kingy for what seemed ages until the king made a dive for freedom. Not the best image as it was difficult to keep up with them, but I thought you would like to see the behavioural shot.
Location
Cley/Norfolk
Date taken

40d 100-400 IS usm
Just recieved the RSPB's emailed newsletter and there is a report of a kingfisher being mobbed by 3 swallows in there - peculiar behaviour!

Great shot :t:
 
Given the activity here, it's a splendid capture, brilliant work! :clap: I've never seen anything fight with a small Kingfisher, so thanks for this great behaviour shot. :t:
 
One of those actions of nature we are privileged to see from time to time,they make a special memory remembered for a long time,caught on camera is amazing
