This Kingfisher I already knew to sit but was not always there.
Sitting by the water one afternoon, he came flying in, sat down behind a net and then went fishing.
I thought the first photos I took of this bird were a bit too dark, but gave me an idea.
Fortunately, actually not having the right setting gives you an idea for the next photo.
The Kingfisher kept on fishing so by adjusting the settings I was able to get the photo a bit darker, this with the combination that just now the sun was falling through the trees gave me the impetus for this photo.
Wonderful to see how blue the bird is on its back , it is almost luminous.
For me at this moment everything just fell into place to take this photo , the Kingfisher continued to fish there nicely in the following weeks, and hopefully in the spring he will find a nice spot for the offspring there.
