Dear all,
Just a note further to Rohan Clarke's earlier post at Birding-Aus re finding
a specimen of the *Lesser Paradise Kingfisher* (aka *Aru/Little Paradise
Kingfisher*).
I have a short piece in today's Crikey - *Bird of the week: Common
Paradise Kingfisher* that can be seen here:
http://www.crikey.com.au/2010/01/29/bird-of-the-week-common-paradise-kingfisher/
You will note that there is a mis-identification of the bird as a *Common
Paradise Kingfisher*.
This piece was filed with Crikey at about 9am Qld time before I jumped on a
plane back home to Alice.
Once I got home and checked my emails I noted Rohan's earlier post. I have
corrected the mis-identification in the blog post at The Northern Myth.
I also have a longer blog post at my Crikey blog The Northern Myth, with
more photos etc here:

You can also see more photos taken by Rohan at his excellent Wildlife Images
site here: http://www.pbase.com/wildlifeimages/lesser_paradise_kingfisher
As always your comments etc are welcome.
