I found the Kingfisher

There has been at least one Kingfisher at the Willows park but it's been elusive to my camera - a few blurry shots through the trees and in flight. Today I was determined to find it and I did. It's a female Belted Kingfisher and while it always flew to trees across the pond, no matter which side I went to, it stayed in one tree long enough for me to get a few shots.

Outstanding, Elliott. I have been chasing Kingfishers for years and still don't have an image I am happy with.

Thanks, Ken. I've seen several but they are so quick and typically don't stay put. You'll get some!
