Sacred kingfisher / kōtare (Todiramphus sanctus) in the front yard at home - you really don't have to go far to appreciate something beautiful. I love the Hutt Valley.

I've not seen too many UK Kingfishers, but I was lucky to spot quite a few of these guys in New Zealand. A Sacred Kingfisher. This one was spotted at Shakespear Regional Park, near Auckland. 😊
