Great shot. I find it very difficult to capture so much detail in fast moving subjects, nicely done.

I always love looking at your great photos. For the belted Kingfishers do you use a blind. I haven't been able to get the great action shots and detail. What is your secret? 😀

Thanks very much! And yes these were taken from a blind. I took a workshop in Florida and he had us set up in individual blinds. We had to be in them before the sun came up and couldn't leave until the birds were not around
