Ruddy Kingfisher

The male caught a Large Brown Cicada that had landed on the blind and carried it to the chick. The blind suddenly lurched with a loud thud and gave me a start… ^^; The blind is tough going, but it kills your presence, and it's fun when all sorts of creatures besides birds show up. ^^
