Nico, These kingfishers are fast! I like the flight pose, I do wish it were angled a bit more towards us. I think you framed it well.

[Scott Frye]

Flight shots are among my favorites and the meal with this Kingfisher puts it over the top -- good catch on a bird that is very camera wary

Thank you Ben, Denise and Scott for viewing and commenting. Its highly appreciated :)

Yes these scene's are fast and challenging, and my favorite to photograph !

[Ofer Levy]

I like it! See no problem with the angle.

[Lorant Voros]

Not easy to cach these guys indeed and you did a very good job here. Great action shot. Well done.

Good looking lady Nico, and I like the flying posture. Sharp, and good to see she caught a nibble.

I know for sure how it's difficult to make that one.
Fascinating image.

[Jim Neiger]

This is outstanding! I love the bird, pose, and prey, but the sweet light is what really puts it over the top. Well done.

[Hendri Venter]

Top shot Nico. Great light and detail.


I know for sure how it's difficult to make that one. With a 450 even more difficult. Well done here!!
