Young kingfisher (Alcedo atthis)

I knew where these beautiful birds hang out. I was in a shelter at 6 am and saw him around 6:30 but it was a little too dark.
4 hours later he showed up again and this time he stayed for 10 minutes sitting, watching and relaxing on that branch.
This is a young male. He made the day perfect.
