Image of the day- Kingfisher


(c) V. Neblik, 2009.
This is an image of a Kingfisher amongst a bed of reeds that I took in Jerusalem Botanic Gardens back in October (there's an article about that trip, [here] ). Anyway, the point of this picture is really just that an apparently really brightly coloured animal - like a kingfisher- can sometimes all-but disappear into the background in its native environment. The bird is almost exactly in the centre of this image.
