Clear sighting of kingfisher was worth the wait

WE have been regular walkers along the towpath at Hambleden Lock for more than 50 years and seen occasional flashes of blue but never a clear sighting of a kingfisher.

On Saturday we were just alongside a post near the riverbank and were able to watch this bird catching fish and then twisting its neck as another bird flew over it. Worth the wait. — Yours faithfully,
