The blue-winged kookaburra is a large species of kingfisher native to northern Australia and southern New Guinea. Measuring around 40 cm, it is slightly smaller than the more familiar laughing kookaburra. It has cream-coloured upper- and underparts barred with brownish markings.

Very nicely photographed.
Interesting difference to ours.
Same powerful beak.
Love the colours.

It looks like it means business. I'm not sure I have seen this variation before. Nice job.
