COLOURFUL KINGFISHERS DIVE FOR THEIR DINNER
A kingfisher’s bright blue and orange feathers glisten in the sunlight as the bird dives into a lake. The bird is one of several kingfishers pictured hunting in a small lake in Mala Subotica, Croatia. The brightly coloured birds were photographed by Croatian born traffic technician Petar Sabol. The 33-year-old visited the lake in northern Croatia numerous times over the course of two weeks, patiently waiting for the opportunity to capture the perfect shot of the birds and their prey.
