Kingfisher.

Each year these birds return to our palm tree (not shown) to raise a new batch of little guys.
This year we have watched them battle rats (yuck) that come in from the rocks at the beach and try to raid the nest. These birds are amazingly quick and can hit the rat no problem and peck the hell out of it. All this goes down late afternoon in broad daylight.
