Vale Pond Kingfisher

Look what I got!



View from hide - kingfisher was on pole on sluice structure
View from front of hide

Arrived and shook off water
Looking out
Flew back with weed in mouth?
No, not just weed, it had caught a shrimp
Progressed to eat the shrimp
After seeing it fly by a few times over a few days, today it finally perched so I was able to take some photos.
It even disappeared and came back with a shrimp.
Also saw other birds today at the Vale Pond including Little Egrets, Red Shanks, Reed Warblers and a Grey Heron.

Finished
I am off again
On the sluice
