For those of us who like to take photos of birds, there are certain ones who are rather elusive. I've more than one "challenge bird". Today, this is the closest I've come to a . 'til now they were always afar, flying away, laughing. But I've been watching their behaviour & learning... They have territory & favourite perches. I hunkered behind a couple of trees, & waited on their route. Then heard their laughing call flying _toward me_!! & territories

Saw my very first Belted Kingfisher today (I’ve only lived in the US 9 years, about time). Like everything else in this country: kingfishers are bigger in the US than in EU. Oh my! I saw a boy, perching on a branch over the river.

I’ve always thought it’s a good river for a kingfisher and now I know they agree
