Very nice,and certainly not easy photo!
The background blurr is perfect,even at f/7.1...
Did you know that when the kingfisher holds his prey "head forward",it means it's destinated to his little birds,so they can swallow it easier because of the scales orientation.
Best regards,
Fred

To maxifred: Yes, ...
Hello Fred,
yes, I have known this and I also could see him flipping the fish over, before flying to the burrow and feeding the young. Well, I actually did not see the burrow and the feeding of the young, because I didn't want to disturb them, but I have seen the burrow before. Thank you for your friendly critique! Best wishes, Helmut
