BELTED KINGFISHER-BROCKHOLES-RIVER RIBBLE-LANCASHIRE-25/11/2021

After dipping this bird on November 8th (CLICK ON LINK), news came out just after midday that the bird was showing again. I got straight in the car and made the journey north, arriving just after 1pm. After a short walk and eventually getting down a steep embankment, I arrived at the rivers edge and was put straight on the bird by Austin Morley.

River Ribble


The Belted Kingfisher was just sitting out in an overhanging tree right out in the open; at last I had seen one of these magnificent birds.





WHAT A BIRD!

I watched the bird for a good half an hour before leaving it to the masses who were on the way!
