kingfishers 12-7-2016

these were taken on a visit to RSPB Rye Meads near Harlow, Essex.

They were active most of the time I was there as they had young close to fledging so food was in demand.

first some static shots:

and finally rising vertically out of the water, it took several attempts to get one rising out like this at the right moment AND in focus, they are so quick!....
