ledňáček šalomounský Ceyx meeki

A small kingfisher with contrasting dark upperparts and pale underparts. Upperside is dark greenish-blue boldly flecked with bright pale blue and sporting a white neck patch. Underside is creamy white with pure white throat and yellow legs. Bill is entirely dark. Prefers mature and dense secondary forest, often perching low. No other dwarf-kingfisher shares its range. Call apparently nearly identical to that of other Melanesian dwarf-kingfishers: a high-pitched, weak repetitive whistle, often given in flight.
