I finally managed to get out with my camera the other week. One reserve was a write-off, with no water and no birds. My usual kingfisher spot was just as it should have been though and I managed to photograph a new adult male and a juvenile #photography #kingfishers

End of the day, but here is my #BirdOfTheDay: #Mamas&Papas submission. Back in July I was visiting a nearby breeding spot for #Kingfishers regularly. These two brought up a 3 nests. During this photo the second younglings hadn't even fledged yet, but they were already working on the next batch. 🪶

#Dippers & #Greywagtails common on Rotten Calder River in #EastKilbride but #Kingfishers are very rare.

Side by side

In their stand off the kingfishers continued to get closer and closer.

Endurance!

These two kingfishers had a stand off a few days ago which lasted for over 3 hours.

Both standing tall to try to intimidate each other, on a few occasions they did come to blows, but they carried on, until a dog disturbed them.

Clocked!

The moment he spotted me this morning.

I can't complain, he had been sat there for 5 minutes.

This was after yet more drama down on the River Lea.
