Beautiful frame of this Kingfisher, Monique. I really like the vegetation behind the bird. At first glance, I thought I was looking at a pan-blur due to the unusual pattern. Wish for a neater end on the perch. Great feather detail in the bird.

Tx Ron! Would have been nice to get a neater end to the reed but you have to take what you can get! The background was all Papyrus reed as this was taken in the Okavango Swamps, Botswana
