Forest Kingfisher (Todiramphus macleayii)
Date: 12 June 2006
Location: St. Paul's Pastoral Care Centre (Alotau, Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea)
Notes:
deep, dark blue above with startlingly white underparts and supraloral spots, except for a confined, cinnamon wash on the sides of one bird; never a definitive look at white wing patches, just hints (hopefully not just because I was looking for them); bill seemed smaller than T. sanctus; overall, a very different look to T. sanctus
