Belted Kingfisher...caught him napping.

The Belted Kingfisher is one of my favorite birds but hard to get because they are so skittish. I was able to catch this guy off guard for a few seconds....and then he was gone. Comments, critique always welcome.

Nice shots Lamar. We have a black and white kingfisher with a crest that looks so similar. Thanks for posting.

You did good! Very skittish bird. I walked up on one sitting peacefully one day and before I could get the camera aimed he was gone!
