Belted Kingfisher

A Belted Kingfisher is taking a short respite, just outside my window.

For some reason, the words “cool dude” just popped into my head.

He/she has the indistinct markings of a juvenile.

So, I may be being visited by a dude or dudette.

Either way, I’m awestruck by its beautiful design.

I’m selfishly praying for successful hunting from their perch.

I would love to have frequent visits from this neighbor.

I’m thankful for this pleasurable opportunity to watch the youngster.
