The little blue flash, the river snitch, the King... The earliest memory I have of seeing one of these gorgeous little birds was being sat bored in between my two older brothers Henry and Ethan as they fly fished on the river Wye, me being the youngest, had to hold the net, all of sudden this shreiking blue flash darted up the river Infront of me, I watched as is disappeared beyond the upper weir into distance. I was suddenly snapped out of my malaise by Ethan saying 'Oi! I've got a fish on give me the damn net!'. I hadn't seen one for years up until a couple of years ago when whilst walking near MCR, a female flew out of the river bank Infront of me. Ever since then I kind of knew I wanted to get a decent pic of one. This one is a female, you can tell because of its pinky orange underbill (a male has a solid black bill). I want to thank @the_life_of_lowery For putting me on the right trail to find one, cheers James lad. For me they'll always be the 'little blue flash'. 😊 'ALCEDO ATTHIS' - Kingfisher 💙 . . . . . #uk _shooters #your _peakdistrict #peakdistrict #uk _greatshots #roamgreatbritain #kingfisher #exploreearth #bbcwildlifepotd #stayandwander #wildlifephotography #bbcearth #yourshotphotographer #countryfile #thebritishwildlife #artofvisuals #earthpix #wildernesstones #lonelyplanet #natureaddict #earthoutdoors #lifeofadventure #folkvibe #visualsofearth #bbcwildlifepotd #the _folknature #birdphotography #folkgood #lensbible #discoverearth #earthcapture
