Belted Kingfisher

About this cute Belted Kingfisher

The Belted Kingfisher is one of six American Kingfishers and the most common Kingfisher in the United States. You'll find this bird perched prominently on trees, telephone wires and posts close to water before plunging in head first to catch a fish. Belted Kingfishers nest in horizontal tunnels made in river banks or sand banks.
