St Andrew Kingfishers

Collared Kingfisher of St Andrews Cathedral

No, thats not the species. I'm talking about the pair of Kingfishers I spotted at St Andrew Cathedral. In fact, after observing them over 3 weeks, I can safely say that they have made that tree, and that particular perch, home.

They are always there, always in the same position, with one on a higher branch and one on a lower one.

Well of course occasionally they fly away to other trees when they spy an annoying monkey sneaking not so discreetly up at them with a metal box.


NB: This is not the favourite branch I talked about. They resettled elsewhere coz of stalking monkey and falling rain.
