A Belted Kingfisher typically after feeding her young will take a quick dip to clean her plumage. You can image after two weeks of the eggs hatching how many fish bones and waste are in the nest.

Wow, amazing frame, Rob. You might want to fix it as it shows only if you click on the x.

What a wonderful Kingfisher shot, Rob! Great pose with the fluffed out feathers and super background showing off the water droplets!
