Does anyone know if Kingfishers have a season, like they up-sticks and fly off to Iceland or South Africa for the winter or are they here all year round?

Kingfishers do not migrate but remain in UK all year.  They tend to stay in distinct territories and as such should not be disturbed.  They are a protected species and disturbing them can lead to prosecution.   Since Police are even rarer species there is little chance of this happening, of course.
