Sorry got the wrong ID, it is an Amazon Kingfisher- Chloroceryle amazona
But as there are comments I´ll keep it for now, but remove labels. I might find some shots of it.

It is a pity I could not get it from the front where you can see the red coloring but the guide said it was the Ringed one. So, I have to trust that.

I love kingfishers. They are so beautiful and so hard to get a good photo of them - or at least the ones around here are! I did get quite a good one this morning - we have both posted kingfishers this week!
SvaraRaderaI love Kingfishers! That one has such a huge head, I wonder how its body supports the weight of it!
SvaraRaderaJättehärlig fågel. Undrar hur det är med tyngdlagen och det stora huvudet, när de flyger?
SvaraRadera...now this kingfisher has a bill! I love it!!
SvaraRaderaVilken läcker varelse! Hugaligen. Namnet Torquata anknöt för min del till Torquemada, den spanske Storinkvisitoren. ....vilket kanske säger en hel del om mig som person? Jaja. Ingvar
SvaraRaderaThe kingfisher are awesome birds, great sighting and photos.
SvaraRaderaHerregud .. vilken näbb den har :) så stor näbb till den lilla kroppen:) underbart att få se en bild på denna fågel :)
SvaraRaderaI finally found the way!
SvaraRaderaYes I think, the Kingfisher is an Amazon K.
Thank you Herman!
