A few days ago, a Japanese TV show introduced amongst its selection of "exotic creatures" the Warai-kawasemi (ワライカワセミ: "laughing kingfisher") which was an eye-opener as it hadn't occurred to me that the kookaburra was a kingfisher!

a male kingfisher and a male scarlet skimmer, side by side (the little grebes prey on the dragonflies, so I was wondering if the kingfishers also do, but they didn't) #kingfisher #dragonfly #nature
Kingfishers are very scarce in Finland, very few even try to brave the winter here. Taken a few weeks back. #birdsofmastodon #kingfisher #birds #birdphotography #naturephotography #naturecommunity

Although we've moved I'm still planning to maintain our old Ruston House site. I'm still to update the introductory pages.
This is "Today's Image", taken in July 2013.
Lots more #wildlife to see around the #lake and #grounds.
