Still The Belted Kingfisher

On 10/05/2026 02:55 pm by Cecille Kennedy | Depoe Bay Harbor, Oregon

At first the belted kingfisher perched on a cable wire then he flew and perched on the rocks at the edge of the harbor looking west. He stayed for a while allowing me to take this shot.
The common species in Europe was historically viewed as a supreme fishing expert, leading to the English name. Despite the name, not all kingfishers eat fish; many forest and woodland species—like kookaburras—primarily hunt insects, reptiles, or small mammals instead. Source: Tweetapedia
