The Male BLUE-EARED KINGFISHER in diving mode & deep concentration, Singapore

This Blue-eared Kingfisher didn't appear to be distracted by the incessant calling of the Straw-headed Bulbul in the background, but instead was in deep concentration trying to execute a perfect dive for fish.
After its dive, it flew deep inside the pond to perch for a long time, seemingly in deep thoughts.
This is the male Blue-eared Kingfisher, as evidenced by its all-black bill.
The Blue-eared Kingfisher is an uncommon resident in Singapore. It has recently been spotted in many nature parks in Singapore, possibly a very good sign that this uncommon species is doing well.
