Kingfisher

What a treat they gave me, today. A lovely view of two birds, flying along the burn as I enjoyed my last run of the year, this morning. More in hope than expectation, I took my camera with me in the afternoon, where I enjoyed over 15 minutes watching this beauty perching and fishing. A fabulous way to end the year.
I've included two "action shots" in the extras. They are not great, light levels were far too low to freeze this movement, but they will serve as reminders of a very special day.

All the very best to you all, my Blip-pals. Enjoy your celebrations, this evening, and may 2019 be a wonderful year, for each and every one of you.
