Unsuccessful dive Watch as one of the juvenile kingfishers on Hackney Marshes fails in their latest fishing effort. You can really see the dark legs and feet which tells you this bird was born this year - adults would have bright orange feet. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #kingfisher #hackney

The kingfisher and the cormorant. These two sat next to each other for about 20 mins earlier today #kingfisher #eastlondonkingfishers #birds #nature #walthamstow

The kingfisher is back in Victoria Park. Popped along this morning and within a short time I heard a familiar call. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #birds #kingfisher

The ringed juvenile kingfisher on the River Lea. You can see quite clearly the metal ring on it's right leg. This youngster is regularly being seen chasing up and down with another juvenile. No stand offs or fighting, just chasing each other up and down. #LondonBirds #nature #birds #kingfisher

No sign of the adult male! Has this youngster prevailed? Only time will tell. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #birds #kingfisher #hackney

So, so many fish. No wonder there seem to be around half a dozen kingfishers on the Lea at Hackney Marshes at the moment. #kingfisher #fish #hackney #riverlea

The River Kelvin Kingfisher If we had not seen him fly into this tree, then almost certainly we would not have spotted him given the cover he had from the foliage.

Glaswegian Kingfisher A wander along the River Kelvin in Glasgow yesterday afternoon and we spot this rather friendly chap, who was quite relaxed with all the people wandering by (most of whom never noticed him). What a treat!

Put a ring on it! One of two juvenile kingfishers who were chasing each other around on the River Lea yesterday morning has a ring on it's right leg. The most likely place it will have been ringed is Walthamstow Wetlands. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #kingfisher #hackney

Young upstart The kingfisher perched higher up is a juvenile - to date they have not been successfully chased off by the adult. The youngster seems determined to claim this bit of river in east London. #nature #wildlife #birds #kingfisher #birdphotography

Feather maintenance Kingfishers spend a huge amount of time looking after their feathers. They apply a special oil to repel water, they get rid of dirt and mites and also ensure the feathers are all alligned correctly to ensure they keep their aerodynamic shape when diving.

Competition! Clearly both these birds want this stretch of river for themselves. Kingfishers are territorial and will not share - until this is resolved they will keep coming into conflict. #nature #wildlife #birds #eastlondon #kingfisher

The stand off continues It is remarkable these encounters can last for when neither bird backs down. #nature #wildlife #kingfisher #birds #eastlondon

Young one This youngster is staking their claim for the resident adult males territory on the River Lea. Will be fascinating to see who triumphs! #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #kingfisher

Autumnal vibes Easy to see how the kingfisher blends into the autumn leaves with the colour of its chest feathers. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #kingfisher

Precision preening. Watch as this juvenile kingfisher looks to keep their chest feathers in good condition. Filmed at Walthamstow Wetlands. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #birds #kingfisher

Side by side In their stand off the kingfishers continued to get closer and closer. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #kingfishers #hackney

Getting closer - watch as one kingfisher moves closer to the other in this epic standoff. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #birds #hackney

Endurance! These two kingfishers had a stand off a few days ago which lasted for over 3 hours. Both standing tall to try to intimidate each other, on a few occasions they did come to blows, but they carried on, until a dog disturbed them. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #kingfishers #hackney

Clocked! The moment he spotted me this morning. I can't complain, he had been sat there for 5 minutes. This was after yet more drama down on the River Lea. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #eastlondonkingfishers #kingfishers

A rather sleepy young kingfisher at Hackney Marshes - it kept dozing off. Filmed yesterday, this youngster looks younger than some of the other juveniles I have seen on this section of the Lea in recent days. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #birds #kingfisher #eastlondon

An early morning visit to Hackney Marshes and this juvenile was in the same spot as earlier in the week. Wonderful to now have several youngsters down on the Lea. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #birds #birdphotography #hackney #riverlea

More juvenile kingfishers Not the best photo, but just after dawn today saw another young bird (note the dark feet) down at Hackney Marshes - this one quite some distance downstream from where I saw the other youngster earlier in the week. #LondonBirds #nature #wildlife #birds #kingfisher

Coming to blows! After their long stand off, watch as the adult male grabbed the youngster by the bill, and drags them into the water. He showed the youngster he was serious about wanting them to leave and find their own territory. #nature #wildlife #birds #kingfisher #walthamstowwetlands
