Kingfisher fishing

Another trip out with the eldest boy. Wandered up to the mouth of the Wandle, parked the boy and scanned the creek. A flash of blue and orange and a splash - Kingfisher. I've seen them here quite a few times and I know it's a bit geeky to get excited by them, BUT, it's a Kingfisher! In the middle of London! Just a couple of yards away from a tip full of old PCs and sofas and bald Christmas trees. Honestly, how cool is that? Also around 8 or 9 Gadwall, c10 Tufties, a male Pintail (presumably part of the London plastic posse) and a Grey Wag.
