Description
The common kingfisher is a small sized bird, almost like a sparrow. It has vibrant and beautiful colors, typically blue upperparts, orange underparts and a long bill. It feeds mainly on fish, caught by diving, and has special visual adaptations to enable it to see prey under water. They fly rapidly, low over water, and hunt fish from riverside perches, occasionally hovering above the water's surface.
