Thanks a million for the compliment Sylvia. It has been a week of fun capturing these shots.
Outstanding captures! I can't get one decent Kingfisher and you have three in one shot! Very nice work on all of these.

Thanks for the nice comment Carol. I was fortunate to find this family of Kingfishers. The family total is 2 adults and 3 youngsters. I suspect the youngsters are very close to fending for themselves pretty soon.
It has been a fun opportunity watch the family activities.

Pat,
Thanks for your comment about these images in the download view.
Killer series. I've never seen more than one Kingfisher at a time. Thanks for sharing.

A very nice set Phil. I appreciate the downloads. The two Kingfishers facing us are males, was the third one a male as well? It is a fairly rare sighting in my experience. Good job of documenting it!
Regards, Phil
Wonderful set Phil. Your dragon is a male Twelve-spotted skimmer (Libellula pulchella). Fine work.

Wow, I've never seen a shot of multiple kingfishers before! Good set!
