How I Took This Photo - BEHIND THE SCENES of Photographing Kingfishers

I'm taking you behind the scenes of how I took a closeup portrait of the Common Kingfisher. Kingfishers are quite easy to spot thanks to their beautiful teal and orange plumage - but it takes a lot of planning and effort to get really close to the Kingfisher.

An trust me, I've seen lots and lots of wildlife photos... I love your compositions and the moments you capture, as well as your style of editing. Be proud of yourself, you are a great artist!

You have to set the sticks where the fish is resting or feeding. Where the river is slower, the bird knows where the fish will be catchable.
