These are terrible, terrible photos but I'm so pleased to have gotten them at all. Standing there beside the Blanco River, looking at ducks, I suddenly heard this unearthly screech as something swooped out of the trees on the opposite bank, down the river, and then back again. I aimed and snapped and somehow was somewhat successful! It was not until I viewed the photos onscreen that I was able to see that the bird was a kingfisher. I will never forget its cry; very prehistoric.
