Kingfisher

 

Female Belted Kingfisher, South Lake

It was another chilly day, even with the sun shining. The highlight of the day's nature sightings was a female belted kingfisher who happened to perch on a couple of branches that were close enough to photograph. I often hear its chittering call when I ride past South Lake, but I rarely see the bird. And when I do see it, the sighting is usually over before I even try to get my camera out.
