As I was just dissing kingfishers with another poster (not them personally--just how hard they are to photograph), the bird of the day is this very accommodating #ringedkingfisher from the Napo river in Ecuador. #birds #kingfisher

🌎 Ringed kingfisher (Megaceryle torquata) The Ringed kingfisher is a large kingfisher with a robust body, a shaggy crest, and a long, thick bill. Its plumage is predominantly blue-gray, with a white collar around its neck, giving the bird its name, and a bright chestnut belly. Ringed kingfishers are found in large parts of the Americas, from Mexico southwards, and they are known for their powerful, diving flight and their ability to catch fish by plunging into water from perches.

After Africa's largest Kingfisher, is this, the largest kingfisher from the Americas.
The #RingedKingfisher
I am so happy to have this photograph, right from the moment it re-emerged from the water, fish in mouth.

P:S. I think it was watching me!

A Ringed Kingfisher, emerging from river waters with a fish in it's beak. There are water drops and a big splash surrounding it. The light is clear and bright. The bird is looking directly into the camera.

One more #kingfisher we were lucky enough to see in the #Pantanal. The #RingedKingfisher is like a super-sized belted kingfisher. They range through most of South America and up to the southern tip of Texas. Unfortunately, I was fighting dim evening light here. #brazilbirds #avesbrasil 🌿🪶🇧🇷
Profile of a slate-blue, white and rufous bird posed on a fence facing to the right. It has dark eyes, a large opened beak and upturned spotted tail. A pair of slate-blue, white and rufous birds posed on a fence facing to the right. The closer bird has its back to the photographer hiding its rufous belly, but clearly showing its white-spotted tail feathers. The other bird shows a dark eye, a large, slightly opened beak and acutely upturned tail.

For @alan678.bsky.social’s #BirdOfTheDay theme of #JKLMNOP I decided to pick a letter and go with it. So here are my “K” friends: #Killdeer #BrahminyKite #RingedKingfisher #AmericanKestrel #birds #WildlifePhotography #ECK
A close up of a light brown bird with a white throat and “eyebrow.” There is a black ring below its neck, a thin black line through its eye, and a black patch on the nape of its neck. Its eye is large and orange. It has the slightly worried expression that killdeers always do. A close up of a sleek-looking bird in flight. The head and breast are snow white. The body and wings are a rich reddish brown. The hooked beak and legs are yellow. The kite has a clear amber eye. A blue-green bird with a large heavy beak sits on a blanch in a lush green rainforest. The birds breast and belly are a russet color. It has a white ring around its neck and hints of white on the underside of its wings. It has keen black eyes. A small bird of prey sits on a wire against a brilliant blue sky. The bird has a mottled brown upper body with a light rust belly. Its breast is black and white speckled and the tips of its wings have black feathers. There are vertical black and white stripes on the side of its face, and the top of its head has a blue-gray cap. All in all, it’s a very patchwork looking bird.
