I stumbled across an amazing photo of a kingfisher diving for its dinner, taken by photographer Adrian Groves<\/a> with a Canon 40D<\/a> camera. Though I can no longer show you<\/a> here due to copyright issues…<\/p>\n

Groves set up a tank of minnows as bait, camouflaged with some netting, and then hid out, waiting for the kingfisher to appear. When it finally did, the Canon 40D (with a 70-200f2.8L IS lens, set at f\/8, 1\/1000 seconds) managed to shoot the kingfisher diving for a feed. I can’t stop looking at it—the orange feathers make it look like it’s on fire.<\/p>\n

Now I want a 40D. And a pet kingfisher. [TrekNature<\/a> via Telegraph<\/a> and Daily Mail<\/a>]<\/p>\n
