I spent the day Tuesday in Mike Dunlevy's excellent kingfisher hide near to Market Drayton, Shropshire. Due to covid I had the hide to myself which was quite nice 
I had the a9 + 90mm setup for diving shots and triggered with the Sony RMT-P1BT remote. Ideally a nice fast shutter speed of around 1/4000 would be ideal for this type of shot, but the light wasn't playing ball so I had to drop it down to 1/1600. It was my first time trying these type of dive shots and I can definitely see how it could be addictive! Mike has a fantastic setup and is extremely knowledgeable about the kingfishers and their behaviour. Highly recommend a visit if you are in the UK! Will post some perched shots soon.
