    Looking down

    Two kfs were there. Without territorial issues. Guess they are a pair and they are the breeding pair that I watched upstream in February and March this year.

    Kingfisher and fish (Alcedo atthis)

    It looks like a small fish, but it is a huge bite for the Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis), almost as long as him. After a long phase of softening is still difficult to swallow, so much so that in the end he is out of breath
