Young Sacred Kingfisher (Todiramphus sanctus)

This little kingfisher had hit a branch while diving in the fiddermans creek. Was a little shaken but eventually took off and I saw him over the next few days (recognised by missing tail feathers).

A lovely capture of a real cutie. I'm glad to hear he made it okay.
