Kingfisher

Alcedo atthisRed

Perched on a branch above a stream, the Kingfisher looks like a jewel ready to fall into the water. A compact body, stout bill and vivid plumage make it one of the most eye catching birds near rivers and ponds.

Overview

The animal behind the card

From its lookout, it watches for small fish and aquatic insects, then plunges headfirst in a sudden dive. Specialized vision allows it to judge refraction and compensate for the distortion of water.

Some species excavate tunnels in riverbanks, ending in nesting chambers where chicks grow in the dark. The bright flashes of adults coming and going give away these hidden homes.

Bestiary facts

A kingfisher's eyes compensate for refraction, helping it judge a fish's position after entering the water.
