thanks Alan. there is a 'topknot' but it's invisible from this angle.
but the indian ones seem to be generally darker (from a cursory perusal
of images on the net)

Another fine image, Subash. The subject is quite dark in colour & shows 
no topknot - rather different to others I saw on the internet. I 
expected it to be more like the African Pied Kingfisher.

Good catch, Subash.
I would have preferred the image
not be centered, but moved to
the viewer's left to an area prox
one third of the way between the 
left edge and the center of the frame.
