Coron Re-visited

[Bobby Kintanar]

Our company decided to celebrate our yearly outing over at Coron, Palawan. I have visited the place a couple of times before, but I'd like to share some new captures from the place:

Nikon D500 with Tamron 100-400 Di VC USD;

Camera Settings: ƒ/6.3 @ 400.0 mm; Tv-1/1250; ISO 1800; No Flash

I think this is the Rufus-backed Kingfisher - correct me if I'm wrong - recently re-named from "Oriental Dwarf Kingfisher:
