Kingfisher!

A male Belted Kingfisher patrolling the bays at Bush Terminal. Yesterday I saw one in Green-Wood. I wonder if this is the same bird moving between fresh and salt water? The Green-Wood bird, which I’ve seen twice now, is very vocal, calling between flights and while rattling away while perched.

N.B. All the strings and plastic in the pictures above are attempts to keep Canada Geese from eating the Spartina.
