Rufous-Collared Kingfisher: Mission Accomplished

25 July 2009, Kemensah, Selangor

I was  on the lookout for this bird ever since my son took a blurry photo back in April. Last Saturday we thought maybe we would just have a half an hour of birding before going to the waterfalls. Went to the area around 6.00pm where she was last spotted and there she was, 15ft from us on a clear perch. A female Rufous-Collared Kingfisher (Actenoides concretus).

Mission Kingfisher (Rufous Collared and Blue-eared Kingfishers) I would say 'Mission accomplished'.
