Sleeping it Off
As I was getting ready to come back to Christchurch from two days in Akaroa I heard a bang on the glass door. I found this Kingfisher had hit the glass, but didn't seem to be knocked out. It let me pick it up and used my finger as a perch. I checked over and it let me open its wings and all seemed good. Put it on the pot plant on the table and it closed it eyes. That is why the eye looks funny. I touch it and and he opened them again. I left him there as I packed up. About 20 minutes later he fly away. Hopefully all was OK. I haven't seem a Kingfisher since I was a child.. wonderful experience holding one.
Just as I was getting the car packed up it started to rain. Sad to be leaving. Hopefully I can get back soon.
