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.

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
