Kingfishers

Walk along any river bank in Scotland and you stand a good chance of seeing a Kingfisher.  Unfortunately, more often than not, all you see is a flash of blue as the kingfisher flies along the river.

The trick is to try and find the favourite perch where the Kingfisher does his fishing from – and then be patient and wait for it to turn up!

Even then, remember that these are very small birds, and a pair of binoculars will help a lot.
