Grey-headed kingfishers are widely disturbed in and around the African continent. This one was spotted on one of our game drives in Kenya, perched amidst the thorns of an acacia tree. We also had a few hanging around our tent in Samburu National Reserve. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 500mm PF lens, ISO 2800, f/5.6 at 1/1000th of a second.

Drop dead gorgeous Sean!
Thanks John. They are striking birds to see in the wild.
What a beauty!

Thanks Bill.
this bird head too big. I’m not going to say that it’s a beautiful bird. Not going to do it. Not true. It’s a big-headed ugly bird.
