These birds have dense water-resistant plumage and powerful wing muscles making them natural fishers. Each kingfisher needs to eat its own bodyweight of fish each day to survive! It takes any fish its caught, back to its perch where the kingfisher stuns it so it can be easily swallowed.
Their dazzling colours make them easy to identify, but despite this, they are often not seen because of their small size.
