Beautiful image Ofer of one of these fabulous Kingfishers. I had great fun with this species earlier this year in India. :)

More kingfishers from Israel ?? :D
Fantastic shot. White-breasted at it's best.
6 weeks from now is pretty much the best time to be here for the winter rarities, if the Winter is going to be as fun as this autumn then you are going to have extra fun this visit ! :D
