Belted Kingfisher

Lake Frederick, Virginia

Spotted two Belted Kingfishers while standing on Lake Frederick's earthen dam. One on the Lake side of the dam (2nd 'previous' image); the other (this one & 'previous' images) on a tree along the tailwaters side of the dam.
Believe both of these are males as I could not see any 'rusty' brown on either of them. Best viewed in 'original' size.

Nice shot, Don. You are finding good things to shoot at your new location.
