Here are two photos I took at the Wonga Wetlands in Albury - I think they are of a Sacred Kingfisher and a Black Kite, can anyone confirm ?
Definately looks like a young Sacred Kingfisher to me.
I'm still learing BOP so I couldn't tell you what the secon photo is, sorry.
Thanks,
I've also got this one (from Burnt Bridge, near Lakes Entrance) which I thought was a Forest Kingfisher - but now I'm not so sure...
Sacred Kingfisher for me based on location, haven't seen a Forest though.
No definately sacred kingfisher.
A Forest has a defined large white spot above the bill.
Heres a Forest To compare.
Hope this helps.

Yep, I see what you mean, thanks for that!
No problem, sorry I couldn't help with your BOP.
kite looks more like a Whistling imo
