Chocolate-backed Kingfisher (Halcyon badia)

The 13.02.2024 was a lucky day for my group and me . We could find the three kingfishers that I am posting today in the Budongo Forest. Two of them - the African Dwarf and the Chocolate backed Kingfishers are normally very shy and very difficult to find.
