One of my favourite subjects to photograph in the Summer has to be the amazing Kingfisher. It is quite simply a stunning bird, many people have only ever seen that blue flash as they course up and down the river looking for their next meal. There are simple ways though to watch Kingfishers at close quarters. Join me as we head for a local river and deploy a few tactics to help us get some close up shots of these aquatic hunters.

I keep getting asked about my new kit namely the OM Systems OM1 and Zuiko 150400 f4.5 Pro Lens and whether the micro 4/3 system can hold its own against the likes of its full frame cousins. Check out some of the images at the end of the film and make up your own mind.

Anway grab a brew and a fig roll (other biscuits are available) and sit back and enjoy the film!! Thanks for watching.
