Description: Malachite Kingfisher strung up on the fence presumably by a jack-hanger. Rather large prey for a jack-hanger but it was a very bad year with not much food for all. I had the go-pro up for a whole morning trying to film the jack-hanger coming back for his meal, but alas all I got was hours of empty footage.
