Kingfisher

 I sat down on a bench for a few minutes and this bird flew in and landed on an old fallen tree. It stayed for a few minutes and then flew off again. I have seen Kingfishers at Ferrymoor Flash before but not really managed to get a photo of them here. After walking up to the next bench it flew across the front of us near to where the two Grebe Juveniles were swimming about.
