2015 Kingfisher update

Not a bad start to 2015 and kingfisher sightings
All the old haunts so far plus one new location;
Birmingham;
River Tame tributary Salford junction
Bourn Brook
River Cole - three seen
River Rea - two seen - surprisingly both female
Essex;
One at Warren Fishery - Stanford-le-Hope
One flew from the sluice on Mucking creek - I saw it do this twice on different days.
A new one on the Ingrave village pond - we saw it a couple times in a week.
10 seen total in 2015.
Some good photo's on the Rea

It was also good to find 2 on the River Cole about half a mile a part.
Very close to where I found 2 last year.
