Pied Kingfisher (Ceryle rudis)

A brief moment of sunlight made this backlit image possible on a generally cloudy morning. This Pied Kingfisher was hovering at a distance and I could not get much frame coverage. I have made this crop from 100% enlargement. EXIF : 1/3200, 8.0, ISO 640, 400mm. Very basic PP & neat image.
