December 16th

murky water swirls

on its ragged path to sea

blue bolt over grey

breaks monotony

iridescent kingfisher

fades in the hedges

Saw my first Kingfisher of the year, D and friends were taking a winter dip in the river Cam in Cambridge. It was only a moment of bright blue whizzing across the murky water. It was all over well before I could get my cameraphone ready, but here is a pic of the sunrise.

First pic by me. Kingfisher illustration from RSPB website.
