    Kingfisher from Toraja (Sulawesi)

    Can't find it in my book of birds of greater Sundas and Wallacea... It looked like an european alcedo atthis, but it was noticeably much bigger. Seen in a rice paddyfield near Rantepao.

    Some info about PNG

    Is it safe to go? Have been at Papua (Raja Ampat, Manokwari, Wanema) few months ago, and everybody said Port Moresby is now one of the most dangerous city of the world. Birding is hard, and as it´s mentioned, its easier to see a BoP than any other "common" bird.
