Sacred kingfisher visits our garden

 

Sacred Kingfishers are no longer as common in Perth as they once were. In the 1980s I used to see them at Lake Gwelup. More recently I've heard them calling from the Karrinyup Lakes Golf Course. This week a juvenile Sacred Kingfisher visited our garden, ate a few insects, and perched for some time in the Grevillea until being chased away by a Red Wattlebird.
