Ottawa West

Several people suggested that the Kingfisher appears to be unhappy or upset with me, or with something. He is actually terminating his stretching exercises with this BIG yawn and is paying no attention to me positioned on the far side of the pond. He then settled down again and continued to look for more dinner.
