Juvenile Male Belted Kingfisher

I believe this bird was one of the offspring of the kingfisher with fish from an earlier post. The limb he is perched on seems particularly attractive to kingfishers since at high tide they are able to dive directly into the river below. The site is a kilometer or more from their nesting location so it's interesting that they often choose this particular spot.  I have taken photos in previous years at the same location.
