    Was on Spring watch - Photo of the Day

    We claim to fame today. Managed to get one of my Kingfisher pictures on BBC nature and Springwatch websites. :)

    The best of the BBC, with the latest news and sport headlines, weather, TV & radio highlights and much more from across the whole of BBC Online


    It's not Nat Geo but a nice wee touch :)

        Congrats Paul, lovely shot. Shame they mentioned exactly where to get the shots though, after all your issues!

            I'm not worried about the location now. We're protected by the license as much as the kingfishers are. Anyone can get a grab shot. They might get 20m from him at best. However, no one can get to the nest and get close like we can :)

                Sadly if only that were true. We'd not need 24 hr guards on rare breeding species. Even common species are not safe from anyone with malicious intent, despite the laws. Just think about the 16 Raptors poisoned up the road from you.

                That said, impressive shot nonetheless.
