Went to the top hide at Rue des Bergers this morning (10:20am) and saw a kingfisher for the first time! She, female as orange bottom of beak, was there for a minute or so then flew away.
Tiny and colourful even from the far distance where she was on a pole in the lake. A week ago you could not see the pole from the bottom hide because of the reeds but now it has been cut back a little. Shame I was not in the bottom hide which is right next to the pole.
