Common Kingfisher
Alcedo atthis
Order:  Coraciiformes
Family: Alcedinidae

The common kingfisher is a small iridescent blue and orange bird with a long, pointed bill. It can be found throughout Europe and across North Africa and Asia. Often seen in fast, low flight, kingfishers prefer clear, slow-moving water where they catch small fish, insects and small invertebrates.

While the male and female plumage is the same,  male kingfishers have all black beaks, the  female’s beak is orange-red. 

The common kingfisher has several vocalizations. In flight, the call is a short sharp repetitive whistle, “chee”. Their alarm call is a harsh, shrit-it-it, and nestlings call for food with a churring noise.
