A Closer Look

As I was driving by the marsh I pulled  over like I always do. Nothing unusual. Off in the distant I see my swans. A good two dozen Canada geese are swimming together like always. Than something catches my eyes.

At first I thought it was a pigeon. It was acting really weird. So I got out my camera took several shots. When I took a closer look, I could see that it was not a pigeon but a belted kingfisher. The reason it was acting weird was that he was trying to eat his catch of the day.

I love visiting the marsh. I never know what I will get to see. But when I take the time to get a closer look  it is always a nice surprise.
