Media notes
The darkness and poor ISO sensitivity of my D90 make this a lousy shot, but other than cropping I have not altered in any way (no changes to exposure and/or saturation). Light here is from flashlight, and the flash on my nikon. Black upper mandible and tan lower (as opposed to gray and white), as well as black lores and tan supercilium point to sacred kingfisher as opposed to collared.
Observation details
Seen on night drive. Confirmed by guide and with photo (details attached). Our guide noted that this was not the first time he has seen a sacred kingfisher in danum valley this season.
