There is no mistaking the call and tufted crest of a Belted Kingfisher angling
over Little Crum Creek in the morning sun.

Scott–that kingfisher has an interesting profile; almost like a set of bat’s ears.

Well, the bats do outnumber the kingfishers right around here.
Come dusk, a slight tilt of the head helps spot several starting to swoop and dart against the backdrop of day’s last light.

Nice shot of the kingfisher. He’s just scoping out the scene for one of those minnows…and so the food chain moves on.

He’s a rare sight for me. Thought I heard another the other morning, but couldn’t spot it. Just passing through, I guess.
