Kingfisher and Greenshank, Leighton Moss salt-marsh, Lancashire

October 23, 2010
Two Kingfishers were patrolling the Allen pool today. One of them came reasonably close, fishing off the fence posts and barbed wire. When the waders and wildfowl were disturbed by a Peregrine, the Kingfisher appeared unconcerned.





Nearby, a Greenshank waded through the shallows searching for food.
