Rufous-Backed Kingfisher on Labour Day

Rufous-Backed Kingfisher, (formerly known as Oriental Dwarf Kingfisher) not one but a pair were flying about nearby a stream in Sungai Congkak Recreational Forest on Labour Day morning. I had seen the Black-backed kingfisher species years earlier in (of all places) Petaling Jaya. Read more about that encounter with this very special kingfisher HERE.
