Kingfisher.

Having heard the call of a kingfisher near a lake I was mooching around in Worcs some years ago, I went for a closer look.

The kingfisher was hunting the edge of the pool where I could see a large shoal of small fish, but there was nowhere suitable for perching to watch and dive from, so it was occasionally hovering over the water instead.

Wonderful to witness, and I captured quite a few images.
