Hi All,
I snapped a picture of this kingfisher this morning with my compact camera - it's at a fair distance so the photo's aren't that good...however I think it's a collared kingfisher...can anyone confirm or suggest and alternative?
I live on acreage in Cashmere Queensland about 25 Km NNW of Brisbane's CBD. Open eucalypt forest.
TIA
Ron
Sacred Kingfisher. Collard or Torresian Kingfishers as they are know know are a different blue and have a noticably thicker bill
Hi Devster,
Thanks. He (her?) has been hanging arounf a bit of late - very realy seen before the last couple of months. Of course that may say more about my skills of observation than anything else :)

I usually hear them before I see them. If you check out their call on here (BIBY), you will realize how often they are around.
