Breeding Kingfishers

The stream that winds its way along the edge of the wood, is only small. Just too wide to easily jump across, but today, whilst watching a trout (a rare sighting); a kingfisher swept passed with a small fish in it beak. The bird was either taking this to a nest with young or to its mate. I have yet to find a nesting hole and suspect that it is further up stream on a section that is unaccessible to the public.
