Thanks everyone for checking in and especially for the kind words.
WD - my guess is around 50 feet.

Super portrait. Such personality-filled charmers, I just love these birds. The pattern on the post, are those holes with light showing through? Kind of a cool look!

Excellent. I have many images of Kingfishers but none are very good. They are so timid it makes them really hard to capture.

I appreciate all the comments.
These birds are usually very skittish. I read that it had been hanging around this area and it was kind enough to sit for a portrait.
Linda, those are holes. A little below the bottom of the picture is a water depth scale. The level in the fresh water impoundments is controlled based on what is migrating through.

Thanks Angela.
The bird is a Belted Kingfisher. The last time I photographed one I was kayaking on the Carman's River.
