Thank you Kevin. I see Kingfishers every morning along the Blackwater River in Yateley (Hampshire) at around 8.30am - they seem very busy mot mornings. I think there are 2 nesting pairs about 100 yds apart but sadly one of them has started to look very old and shabby this year. My dog often wades below them while they perch and they dive around him as he stirs up the fish, returning to their perch with breakfast! I dont try to photograph them for 2 reasons; I dont have the equipment, and secondly, they are so frequently seen and for at least 5 minutes at a time, that I simply enjoy just being able to watch them from about 10 feet away.

Your photos are sensational! As a bird-in-flight fanatic myself, I love king fishers. I frequently visit our Kruger National park and smaller parks in South Africa in search of King fishers. I’ve only been lucky twice where I’ve been in a position to shoot from my vehicle a kingfisher diving in- and out of the water. Being in a park one is not allowed to be outside your vehicle and when you are parked on a bridge to finally get the photo of a life time, you have to move on as there are other cars waiting for you to move which is very frustrating! You seem to have the ideal spot. Thank you for sharing your magnificent photos.

Looking forward to see more of your work.

Hi Kevin, superb video and didn’t know about tip #2 and the rehearsal before dive 🤦🏼♂️ I have a location with regular perch but often quite dull so 1/3200 and f8 bit challenging and screwing up my “in dive” shots - but thank you so much 👍🏻😎

I enjoyed this and learned a lot. My problem has been knowing when the Kingfisher will take off as the bird is faster than my eye. So I will try our way of shooting the kingfisher. I recently got a Z9 so it has a precapture function but at the min of 30 fps so I have been able to capture some take offs and dives. Anxious to check out your other videos. I just love kingfisher, living here in Shenzhen China there are so many.
