Hello Ike,
An another excellent shot of a bird in your gallery with this superb fisher very well collected. The color of the bird arise very well. I like too the balance of the composition with the bird well off-centred on the left of the image.
Have a nice WE,
Roger

dear Ike,
a precious shot of hidden kingfisher beside the river,
its unique blue body cannot be hidden in the bush,
maybe it looks aiming the next fish, or it may be singing by its opened mouth,
a natural and beautiful scene you took, thank you,
Akihisa

Hello Ike, Good shot of this kingfisher. None here in Arizona, but they are in Oregon along the rivers. Nice colors and good work with the branches. This bird is often photographed with a small fish in its bill. Never mind, you did a good job too. Have a great weekend. Regards, Roger

Hello Ike.
Beautiful plumage on this bird and a bird that must serve him well when fishing for their food.
Beautiful image that creates the environment of the branches and the blue of the river bottom.
Have a nice weekend. Best regards.
Luis.

very beautiful this bird. I liked this image because it shows the bird inside its eviroment. sharpness isn't perfect because the bird was so far from your camera, anyway the light and the mood of the image are very nice
hugs
