Desmond, please stop making ID suggestions when that spotting is already labeled with the same ID. The common name may only say "kingfisher", but the scientific name is in place, and is the same one you suggested. So again, I am deleting your suggestion and will continue to do so when you suggest an ID for something already identified with the same ID.
