This bird is not kingfisher, it is called striated heron or the mangrove heron. It is rarely seen in the Park. It is non-migratory.
It has blackish grey on the upper head and beak, light grey around the neck and darker grey at the wings with some whitish pattern lines. The belly is whitish and the tail seems to be short. It appeared at the Kuching Friendship Park Lake between 9.30-10.00am, hunting for fish in the lake. The weather was cloudy and mild.
