This weekend was the opening of the fishing season and it looks like this kingfisher wanted to get in on the action. But he didn’t find any fish in my pond, or at least I haven’t spotted any this spring after the thick ice over the winter. So the Belted Kingfisher had to snack on some bugs instead. The males are less colorful than the females as the female also has an additional rusty orange band on her belly.
