All About The KingfisherComes north in early March--remains until December, often throughout the year. Song--harsh, discordant, laughing chuckle or rattle--never musical. Upper parts blue--wings and tail with white markings--lower parts white with two blue bands across breast--bluish tinge on sides--a white spot in front of each eye.--Head large and crested--bill longer than head--feet small. Food--principally fish which it obtains by diving and kills by striking against a tree if large, or swallows alive if small.--This food supplemented by larger insects, shrimps, etc. Nest--tunnelled out of bank--six to eight feet deep--at the extreme end of tunnel is the nest made of fish-bones and scales. Eggs--pure white--four to six in one brood. Next: The Red-headed Woodpecker In Cap Of Red Previous: The Halcyon Birds
