    This is a set of fotos folowing a kingfisher hovering and landing on a perch albeit the fots are taken from a distance it can clearly be seen.

    Than you Yes. I followed him down th brook but in flight it's not so good becasuse it's more a blue blob, I can see it as a kinfisher because I know it is but others probably wouldn't. He is very hard to capture in flight

    Yes, I can imagine. It's a case of " It's a Kingfisher, honest, I'm not lying...."
