You should get some idea of the excitement level of today’s walk by my posting of a Mallard Drake as the featured image. It wasn’t totally boring, though. These two Belted Kingfishers, one male and the other not, led me on a couple of merry chases around the trees and along the river bank leaving me with the long shot results pictured here. There were a lot of Northern Flickers flickering all over the place, one capture closes out today’s post.
