Synopsis
The kingfisher is one of the most bewitching of birds and strikingly beautiful in colour, unmistakably elegant in profile, incomparable when plunge-diving for its food. It is shy, solitary and hard to spot when it perches motionless on a branch above the water. It is also notoriously difficult to photograph, which makes Charlie Hamilton James's achievement in producing Kingfisher: Tales from the Halcyon River all the more remarkable. Having watched and photographed kingfishers for literally thousands of hours, he has built up a unique portfolio in which his skills as a film-maker are apparent and his shots of kingfishers diving make us believe we are watching them in motion. The accompanying text is equally exceptional. Written in diary form, it covers the kingfishers' habits season by season and describes them with real intimacy. The combination is an unparalleled record of the life of this beautiful bird, a towering achievement from a brilliant photographic talent. AUTHOR: Charlie Hamilton James has been filming and photographing wildlife for most of his life. He is particularly passionate about otters and kingfishers and has become an authority on both. He has won numerous international awards for his work, including Young Wildlife Photographer of the Year in both 1990 and 1991, and Best Cinematography at Wildscreen 2004. In 2007 he was nominated for a BAFTA and won the prestigious Royal Television Society award for Cinematography. He currently runs Halcyon Media, a production company specialising in natural history films for television. ILLUSTRATIONS 220 colour illustrations, The Kingfisher is notoriously difficult to photograph, which makes Kingfisher, Tales from the Halycon River all the more remarkable. From a hide attached to his home by a West Country river, and from a number of vantage points along the same river, Charlie Hamilton James has watched and photographed kingfishers for literally thousands of hours.
