When seen on the wing, other distinguishing characteristics of the Kingfisher include a short, stubby tail and a disproportionately large head. Its crest may not be noticeable when the bird is in flight. They are impressive divers when pursuing a meal, truly King of Fishers.
365Caws is now in its 14th year of publication, and was originally intended to end after 365 days. It has sometimes been difficult for me to find new material, particularly during the winter months, but now as I enter my own twilight years, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to provide daily posts. It is my hope that along the way I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world. If so, I can rest, content in the knowledge that my work here has been done.
