Thank you for the great tutorial. I have never seen a kingfisher but hope to one day. I and my husband saw an otter fairly locally to where we live, albeit in the semi darkness, but it did stay still for all of ten seconds, looking straight at us, with a water vole or something similar in his mouth. I was over the moon as I do love otters so will never forget this moment. xPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02889103826921393113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-85281810467556091892014-02-20T19:19:10.313+00:002014-02-20T19:19:10.313+00:00Another inspiring demo, We were lucky enough to se...Another inspiring demo, We were lucky enough to see a kingfisher along the river by our caravan in Norfolk, only seen it the once but I love to sit watching just in case xxTracey Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172187936282927686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-29434168635732778092014-02-20T19:13:21.443+00:002014-02-20T19:13:21.443+00:00Barbara, I LOVE your blog.
