lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Brilliant! I've seen them in two places near me but the elusive buggers just don't want to let me catch them with the lens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen them in two places near me but the elusive buggers just don't want to let me catch them with the lens. Tell me about it Jen been after them all year...was fed up seeing their wee blue asses flying past...hopefully will get some better shots next time Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Millet 4,497 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Awsome stuff.. ..atleast you know where the nest is..can you not set a hide of some kind up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FUJI 17,328 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Superb are those..i haven't seen sight of one this year infact the past couple of year,i knew of a great spot where they ALWAYS nested yearly but when we had the floods up here in West Cumbria (when the bridges washed away) so did the river bank where the kingfishers used to frequent ..hopefully i'll bump into them again at some stage though? ..look forward to the next pics of these fantastic wee birds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bezza Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 I didn't know they actually built nests, I thought they nested in holes in the river bank. You should get some great shots when you get a hide set up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Millet 4,497 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 They do make nest's in hole's in the river bank.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
