A relative to our Robin, but yellow. Sexes are similar so I don´t know who I have here. But I was glad I skipped lunch or I would not have seen this beauty.

This was the only time we saw this beautiful Kingfisher. I´m not sure if this is the same individual or if it is two birds. It might be the light that tricks me as I think they look a little different.
