Rufous-backed Kingfisher

I absolutely loved this little Kingfisher and gave him "star bird of the holiday" - he is tiny and we only managed to see him when I flushed him on one of the forest trails.  Luckily he didn't go too far and stayed perched for a good five minutes right in front of us.  We even managed to video him but have yet to master the art of uploading video to the blog - one day....

  1. Kingfishers are my all-time favorite kind of bird! I can see why you call this one the star bird of the holiday. Fabulous little fellow!
