Im not one for playing around in photoshop much, but I had to have a go at this one. I framed this kingfisher in the top right of the frame and it dived, so I blasted off some shots and picked 5 that didn't over lap to make the following sequence.

I didn't know they dived backwards.

Surely this is it returning to its perch?
Well caught though. CHEERS Vic.

Born again biker with lots of Pentax bits. Every day I wake up is a good day. I'm so old I don't even buy green bananas.

Gosh that is very cool indeed - nice one. I have only ever seen a Kingfisher twice, and both times it was like a flash! fantastic to see nonetheless.

Cheers
