Kingfisher and gull

[P Plates]

From this mornings walk

Not sure which kind and quite a heavy crop


At least the gulls are less wary of humans

Lucky to see the kingfisher, they are pretty scarce down here. The seagull is a juvenile.

Looks like a Sacred Kingfisher Gabby. Shame about the light and crop, but birds seldom cooperate.

It's always to nice to see these beauties

Nice low angle on the gull

Thanks Greg and Alan. There have been three of these rather small kingfishers hanging around lately, always on the low rocks and always backlit which isn't ideal but as you say, always nice to see them.
