Belted Kingfisher – ©ingridtaylar
Big-haired, 80s-style, Belted Kingfisher — on a windy day in Des Moines, Washington. Kingfishers are famously elusive when they see a lens pointed at them. This girl had good fishing prospects at the Des Moines Marina, so she put up with me for the sake of her prime real estate.
Perhaps inspiration for singer Mike Score from “A Flock of Seagulls”
