Hello

New to these forums and still developing my photographic skills alongside my newly found interest in wildlife in general. I frequent the Stort and Lea valleys as an excuse for getting exercise after being cooped up in the cab of a truck for the last 45 years. Retirement looms, and i hope to get out more and more by foot of cycle carrying my trusty DSLR camera.

So, for a taster here is only the second Kingfisher I have ever seen, and the first I have photographed with clarity...the first one i saw just wouldnt keep still, This one at Rye meads a couple of weeks ago was very obliging  :)
