I have seen Azures fishing in tidal zones - a quick check of my lists for
2005 tells me that I have seen them at Apple Tree Bay in Ku-Ring-Gai NP and
at Williga Inlet in Meroo NP on the NSW South Coast.  Perhaps the behaviour
is not so unusual - the European Kingfisher is a regular inter-tidal fisher
although is more easily associated in people's minds with freshwater
streams.  When I visit my parents in the SW of England, after two or three
walks down to the tidal creek I will have picked up one or both of the local
pair.
Cheers
