Sacred Kingfisher (Todiramphus sanctus)
Photo of Norfolk Island race of the Sacred Kingfisher (race norfolkiensis). This subspecies is listed as Vulnerable by the Australian Government. Taxonomists disagree on whether this race is significantly different from the New Zealand race vagans, which is larger than the nominate, has duskier crown and back and yellowish underparts.
