Went to Marsh Lane again this morning getting there at 9.00 AM.It was bright and sunny and not too cold.
All the action took place in front of Oak hide.A Kingfisher was in front of the hide on the reeds about 10 m away.The trouble was it was on the other side of the reeds and getting a shot was a right game.This is all I and the the others were managing.
When it caught a fish it flew a little to the left and perched on the end of the fence rail.It was nearer now but instead of reeds undergrowth was in the way and the light was poor.
It then landed on the front of the nearest island.At last it was in the open but a bit further away.
Because the camera kept focusing on the reeds and not the bird I tried manual focusing and did much better.
I even managed a couple of decent shots of it on the fencing rail.
Whilst all the fun and games with the KF was going on a Green Sandpiper paid a short visit.
