KINGFISHER

'Halcyon sancta' -
I think they go pretty close to being my favourite.
They are about the only bird I know that doesnt scare off when the Hawks fly by - They stick their beaks up in the air and say something like " Here I am big bird - come and get me if you dare ! " Fiesty blokes - the terriers of the Estuary - and pretty as well !!
