Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis)

  • kim
Yesterday the sun shone, and I had a great day with Tom, Peter W and Marise. To make it perfect - a Kingfisher appeared - whilst the sun was shining, which was amazing - not the sun - the bird I mean - cos the men were yapping non stop!!Luckily their dulcet tones did not frighten the bird away!!
Hope you like it too Ken!!
