I'm with Tristan, I have never heard of them called the Kingfisher Pride either, in fact I'm not sure I have ever heard of the Kingfisher Pride at all.
Full name is Kingfisherspruit Pride, there's a few references to them and the skybed males on the forum

Ah, well thank you for that, my friend. For some strange reason, it just doesn't ring a bell. Now I am going to have to go refresh my memory.

A post in the Timbavati thread, by @Timbavati, refers to the Skorro Pride, and the Kingfisherspruit Prides as if they are two different prides, stating they were both referred to as the Orpen Pride at one point or another, along with the Birmingham Pride also being referred to as the Orpen Pride at some point as well. So, it is even a little more murky. Though from the sounds of it, different reserves called the same prides different names, and in some instances referred to different prides by the same name, so in the end it could still be that they were the same pride, the Skorro and the Kingfisherspruit prides. Things weren't as organized back in those days, some of it happening before the Internet was a thing (you know back when things were much more simple, when we were less "informed").

From 1994 to 1998 there was a pride of 23 lions around the Ngala traverse and the Birmingham around Wildlife college to the west. So, mostly of these current prides should be related each-other in the past "

No worries, just thought I'd ask, she definitely appears an older gal. Thanks Bro!
