My apologies for a break in the sequence of posts, I have been insanely busy of late and am very behind with my trip reports, and yet another trip to Istanbul wont make things any better.
We have just returned from a week on the Caldon Canal during which time we saw a number of Kingfishers, usually flashes of blue in the distance but once one of these beautiful birds swooped into a bush beside the canal and remained there whilst we passed.
Helen spotted him and took over steering whilst I tried to get a decent image.
I think this has to be the best Kingfisher photo I am ever likely to get.

That is a very good shot. I've got loads of blurred pictures of kingfishers!
Well done Andy, brilliant picture.
We are heading into Brum. Would love to catch up with you, but it does sound as if your rather hectic lifestle won't allow.

An amazing picture Andy, well done! we have seen so many Kingfishers on the South Oxford Canal, but can never get a picture. Hope you are both well. Doug and James
WOW!
That a great photo - how obliging it was to pose for you :-)

I've been failing to get one that close despite seeing loads on the S Oxford. Well done you.
I think that's the best amateur shot I've seen! Well done! Jealous, me?
Amazing! (I did comment at the time, but it seems to have been lost in the system somewhere...)
