All these images are created at nesting site in rainy season. These Oriental dwarf Kingfishers comes to Kokan Area for nesting,highest rains with plenty of food for their babies. You can take the pictures at the nesting period. Otherwise theses birds are always stays below the plants in shadow area and move like bullets,hence very very difficult to capture them. Nesting period is in between June to August.
