I would assume that it is a set up shot. If you can get a private site withe kingfishers they are (apparently) an easy species to work with. There are known tricks for getting them onto the perch you want them and for getting them to return to it. They are good photos but for me the use of a 'no fishing' sign is a bit cheesy, it has been done many times in the past.
