Stunning image - couldn't be better. Vibrant colours, perfect poses, a view of both front and back, and set off well by the fresh flowers.

Now you've done it..........You've .only made it almost impossible to better a kingfisher on a perch image.

Brings kf images to a new level.

Is this the last of the Kingfisher images by Jeroen Stel? Probably. Cannot improve perfection.
