Jäälind, Alcedo atthis bengalensis

Taiwanis õnnestus mul jäälindu pildistada päris mitu korda ja mitmes erinevas paigas, KUID... ainuke miinus oli see, et lind valis alati istumiskohaks kõige rõvedamad tehismoodustised ümbruskonnas. Olgu selleks siis vette visatud plastkanister, jõeäärne tellis või siis antud metallpost. No mis sa teed, lind on sellegipoolest väga kaunis. Sicao märgala, Taijiangi rahvuspark, Taiwan.

I was really lucky - I was able to capture several photos of a Common Kingfisher in several locations in Taiwan BUT... it always chose the ugliest man-made sitting place that it could find from the surrounding area. Be it a plastic canister in the water, brick by a river or this metal pole. Well, what can you do, the bird is still very beautiful. Sicao wetland, Taijiang National Park, Taiwan.
