User's notes
A pair of Sacred Kingfishers landed on a branch on the opposite side of the tree from me. Fortunately I was able to find a gap in the branches to photograph through. I was not able to get the pair together but I did see this bird with a dragonfly in its mouth. Despite the size of the insect this kingfisher swallowed it down without a problem.
