For most of the US, the Belted Kingfisher is a common bird for most people depending on their location and time of year. For us peeps here in Tucson, we see them here in the winter time. AND if we're lucky, we get a rare Green Kingfisher to come visit:)Rohrerbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02136631378931478644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1264193705821192168.post-79121259458051337562017-08-25T19:16:06.417-04:002017-08-25T19:16:06.417-04:00What a gorgeous Kingfisher!

They seem to sit still until I put my camera to my eye -- then flash, they're off. I'm thinking the ones I see might be a different variety, but I will have to check my archives to look at my one or two only (not nearly this good) pictures.
