Pollok kingfisher

An almost 3 mile run this morning, 8 plus 1 x 3. Last 8 was interrupted by a couple pointing out a kingfisher just at the junction of the allotment track and the park. I failed to see it in the holly bush but was rewarded some minutes later when it, or possibly another one flew over the river. A rich flash of bright emerald the like of which I have never seen, longer and less fleeting than I would have imagined.
I drew this pastel one in the afternoon and spent a lot of time waiting for the tiger on the Edinburgh zoo to appear, it did not.
