Hello Mark,
if I had correctly investigate, the correct latain name ist "Todiramphus chloris" - the "white collared kingfisher". At the genus "Halcyon" there are no "chloris".
To see male AND female together ist great. Is that right, that the male is a little bit more contrasty, darker?

Greats, Birgit
