In the park

Saw this kingfisher in Victoria Park yesterday on several occasions. Is is the same one as have seen over in Mile End Park, or do we have two?

Not the catch the kingfisher had in mind!

This kingfisher came up with a mouth full of weed.

First winter sighting

Spotted this male kingfisher in Victoria Park this morning - my first proper sighting of one in the park this winter.

Was told by a passer by they had seen two of them yesterday.

The giant hogweed is a favourite perch for the kingfisher down on the Lea.
