I don't know why, but kingfishers always gave me "What are you gonna do about it?" vibe. For such small birds, they are surprisingly badass. And they're also super cute, of course.

Greetings from S.E. Australia. We get 3 species of kingfisher around here. The Azure, the Sacred, and of course Kookaburras, which are every-bloody-where. By the way, I've never known Kookaburras to hang around in groups except when people feed them. Other than that it's strictly in pairs.

Haha! Totally, I was pleasantly surprised at how varied the species there are! I had initially planned to do hummingbirds but there are 300+ species so I will work on that one incrementally!

I love your videos, I live in south Florida and we get some belted and ringed kingfishers occasionally. I really like this video format and would like to see a parrot video like this since there are so many interesting species.

No, they just look that way cause of the way the chicks are leaning and the angle of the photo but you can see a little bit of the second chicks neck in the video.
