Kingfishers - Star Performers at Lackford

We decided to get to Lackford early, though we were certainly not the first by a long way in the hide. We had some early sightings of the female (last four images - red under the bill) consuming a dragonfly larva. just as john and Christine turned up,  a wonderful display by a young male who repeatedly flew and settled on all the perches around the inlet. He dived a few times (missed those!) and looked extra good with water droplets. Flight shots not quite sharp but show the action.
