Sacred Kingfisher

Up early one morning,and captured this image of this lovely blue kingfisher,they nest in the ant mounds in the trees around our property.

They are some what migratory,arrive in September,leave in March.

Actually,the last day i usually see them is the 15th of March,and then they head North for the Winter.

This image taken with canon 70-200 F 2.8 at 1/100th of a second,F 2.8,145mm,iso 400, before 7 am.hand held.

Hope this is of interest.
