The Kingfisher is my nemesis bird. I have been trying to photograph them for years. They often land on the Purple Martin nesting box poles. Whenever they see me, they take flight. They are also difficult to photograph in flight. #birds

Lynne, a photo each hour starting at 4pm looking at Mt. Rainier. Wind started picking up around 5:30 pm. No rain yet and I can hear thunder in the distance. The animals are hunkering down.
