I think that there is a "Forest Kingfisher" image dump on the "Collared Kingfisher" page, but it is difficult because of the variety of the "Collared Kingfisher". Can anyone confirm the species in this image Image:Collaredkingfisher seq.jpg? Snowman (talk) 17:11, 27 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi Snowman, definitely a Collared, from Wynnum Mangrove Boardwalk near Brisbane Airport (Forest doesn't usually show green colouration in their plumage - normally a royal-blue) Aviceda talk 18:09, 27 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
