The male kingfisher of the pair I spotted this morning. It has a broader turquoise strip down its back than the female it was with. And look at the colour of that tail. #birds

Spotted a pair of kingfishers on the sea front in Getxo this morning, but didn't catch them close enough together to get them in the same picture. Here's the female. #birds
