A Ruddy Kingfisher at Onuma 4 years ago today. They were always a bit far off to capture with a 400mm lens, this heavy crop was the best I could manage. After 3 consecutive summers with this species in Onuma from 2006-8 I haven't seen any since this pair bred...............

Never seen a Kingfisher with that kind of complexion, & I do like that photo!
ReplyDeleteA ruddy Kingfisher - I bet that's what the fish say too. Cracking bird mate.
ReplyDeleteGreat bird,truly stunning!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen this one so thanks for sharing this gorgeous photo!
This must be quite rare,...never seen one before.In flight,I'll bet it's a lovely sight to see when it shows more than just a tad of blue.
ReplyDeleteIt's still a good capture!!
I've only seen this species in my fieldguides. Pretty nice result for a heavy crop.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments, I swung by the same location a couple of days ago and saw nothing except hordes of mosquitoes..........
ReplyDeleteThat's a strange colour for a bird. Nice one.
