@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialNice to spot this juvenile kingfisher in the Middlesex Filter Beds this morning.
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialLovely light this morning in Victoria Park.
The two female kingfishers were regularly chasing each other around.
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialCatch of the day
A juvenile female kingfisher in east London.
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialHeron alert!
Watch as this female kingfisher reacts to a heron flying towards it.
@stephenmid.bsky.socialCaspian Gull seen on the Tate Modern foreshore on 1st October (from the Czech Republic) #Londonbirds
@tuinz07.bsky.social1st winter Caspian gull outside the Tate Modern on Saturday - confirmed ringed as a chick in May 90km east of Prague!! @jamesthetyke.bsky.social #londonbirds
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialExploring the lake.
Over the course of the past week have been seeing the adult female in new spots across west lake in Victoria Park.
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialBingo!
Had been hoping the kingfisher would land in this tree with it's autumnal leaves, and just as I was leaving Victoria Park this morning I checked, and there she was.
@finchleybirder.bsky.socialAfter a trip recent trip to Spurn I was pleased to be back on patch at RSPB Rainham Marshes today. 2 London ticks in the form of Glossy Ibis and Pectoral Sandpiper, which eventually showed decently! #londonbirds
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialSprucing themselves up.
One of the Hackney juvenile kingfishers on the River Lea.
@johnboorman.bsky.socialSutton Peregrines. Both adult males were sitting quite close to each other this morning, the older one briefly leaving to engage with a couple of Crows but returning to the same spot on the corner. The 2025 male has quite a full crop too! #londonbirds
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialAlways get a little nervous when I take friends on a walk to see the kingfishers that we will not see one.
I need not have worried yesterday as this juvenile sat for quite some time down on the River Lea as we stood watching it.

@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialAfter seeing two kingfishers chasing each other again in Victoria Park this morning I found the second bird.
Hoping they both hang around over the autumn and into winter.
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialAutumn vibes
As the leaves change colour, the kingfisher starts to almost blend in with them.
@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialLook at that lipstick
The whole of her lower bill is orange, indicating not only is she is a female, but is quite a mature bird.
She was quite comfortable with me standing just a few metres away.

@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialHow many kingfishers do you see?
More drama on the River Lea.

@londonkingfishers.bsky.socialThe princess of the park
The view of this female kingfisher in Victoria Park might have been obscured a little by leaves and branches, but she was still just a few metres away. What a wonderful feeling it is to get this close.
