No Kingfisher in these reflections

This morning I joined a work party at Butterfly Conservation’s recent acquisition near Lewes, East Sussex – Park Corner Heath / Rowland Wood. Details of future activities on this web page. I arrived halfway through the session and got in a couple of hours sawing and hauling. We were helping to widen the rides to 20 meters by cutting the smaller tree growth so the chain saw contractors can have the maximum effect when they come in. There were about 10 volunteers out.
Afterwards I toured the two ponds in the vague hope of spotting the Kingfisher Michael had seen earlier but no luck. It was a beautiful winter’s day, warm, plenty of blue sky and lovely reflections in the water.
This is where I thought the Kingfisher might perch
