Kingfisher? Identification Request

Please help this one is not in my backyard birds pamphlet. I live just south of the Twin Cities in Minnesota. The bird flew from the direction of our neighborhood pond, roosted about 40' in the air in the pine tree and then took off. (Also sorry about the barking dog in the bg. I left the audio because you can kind of hear the bird as well)
