Thanks for dropping by to take a look. He was actually hunting but didn't see any opportunity hence no diving shots. And he does look like a stuffed toy hahah!

hi guys,

glad you guys like the pictures. These were shot in Singapore. Another variant of the kingfisher that can be found here is the white breasted king fisher.
