Kingfisher Erupting With Fish in Autumn Tibet

by Terri Steele

Hard midmorning light strikes the water surface, creating a stark glare that reflects against a cloudless sky. A kingfisher bursts upward, its wings blurred by rapid motion, clutching a silver fish in its beak. Water droplets hang suspended in the air around the bird's white chest and blue plumage. The surrounding autumn foliage displays deep russet and orange tones along the riverbank. The bird's sharp black eye contrasts with its bright orange beak. Ripples spread outward from the point of emergence, distorting the reflection of the clear sky. One water droplet slides down the bird's wing feather.
