Acutally, he flew almost into me as I was watching a Great Blue Heron standing at a water trunk. We both jumped and he made a speedy exit to this tree top down the trail.
I inched my way along the trail towards the tree, the Kingfisher zipped back to the spot he originally wanted on the trunk. This gave him a close view of the Ashley River just beyond the trunk and the rice field pond that now was between us.
Love the shot on the trunk, Ellen!

How fun is that, these are such a cool bird. I love the second photo, that fence alone in the tall grass with the Kingfisher on it, perfect photo, that would be a great cover shot for a magazine.

Thanks, Sandra! I love to watch them hunt, their flying/hovering skills are something.
