Whilst walking on the dirt track that runs through the wooded section
of the eastern shore of Acton Peninsular, just near the old hospice,
I saw the unmistakable sight of an Azure Kingfisher. It fluttered
from tree to tree, maybe alarmed at my presence, but not enough to
leave the area. When I later mentioned the sighting to a colleague -
a more experienced birder than I - he informed me that that Azure
Kingfishers are quite rare in the ACT. The sighting occurred at
approximately 1.00 pm on Tuesday 26 September.
