Oh Chris - a once in a lifetime experience! So glad you had your camera! What a lovely encounter to be able to rescue this little one and set him free! You can see he was using his beak to try and get free. Great job...

Wow!! What a brilliant photo! Lucky you having such an opportunity to take it - but even more so - what a lucky Kingfisher that you and your husband came along to rescue it from it's plight at that particular moment in time. Well done both of you - and what a wonderful 'reward' you both had with the bird quite happily posing for piccies afterwards. What a lovely story to read - complete with a very happy ending for all concerned!

Di. Smile

PS. It's going straight into my list of 'Faves'!!

 Wonderful story Chris and a delightful image. Many would give their right arm to capture a shot of a Kingfisher and you've managed to capture both. Green or what? LOL! Maybe I will see one one day and capture it on my camera. Nice one Chris. Thanks for sharing Smile

Hi

What a rewarding shot , You have captured him with colour, sharpness and more than likely saved him from possible danger; he will ALWAYS remember you for that.  Beautiful picture.

This is an absolute gem, Chris - from an experience that everyone must wish to share - having the trust of a wild creature like that.  A natural for the scroller! Thank you too for looking in at my sea otter.
