[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I shot this photo of this beautiful kingfisher in the morning, when I slept on the roof of a boat at gambia river in Gambia. I did not find the name of this kingfisher - I didn't find this species at TN or in the web - I'm sure someone can help me (there's always somebody at TN who knows something about a species - amazing!)...

I scanned the picture and used noise reduction with Neat image. The frame was made with Photoshop Elements 2.0. I have problems to keep the bird clear, not fuzzy. I hope to improve a little bit.

Anyway, hope you like it!

Hi Georg,
This is an adult Halcyon malimbica (Blue-breasted Kingfisher). Pretty bird!

Good shot and very interesting model.
