I have never seen a kingfisher with such red lower beak. Usually their beaks are only slightly red.

    What a nice shot! It seems that your kingfishy-hunt in weekend was very successful. Nice female. :)

    Beautiful image. Nice space in this composition unlike so many other images of this species.
