22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Kingfisher hunting prey

This bird usually has a short tail, large head, blue back, orange belly and long beak. It mainly hunts fish by diving and diving underwater, and its eyes are capable of seeing prey underwater. Behind my house is a small pond, next to it is a forest, creating good conditions for kingfishers to hunt.
