I understand from those on this forum who photograph birds with excellent quality shots,that these little guys are really hard to capture,Mile. You were able to see and shoot this fast action!
Thank you and I was really happy to see her for the second time.

Went back again yesterday and there she was again. These are not the greatest photos was shooting almost into the sun. Late in the afternoon walk. They are sure amazing. They flutter, flutter, flutter, straight dive bomb, hit the water like a ton of bricks. So neat and felt so lucky to watch this little bird.
You really got a good show and the kingfisher had an appreciative audience!

It was sure fun to watch she didn't stay very long. About 3 dives and she was gone. They are very fast
