Pied Kingfisher - Ceryle rudis
Martin-pêcheur pie
They live close to the water, large streams, estuaries, lakes and coastal lagoons, in brackish or fresh water. They feed on fish, aquatic insects, crabs, crayfish, frogs and molluscs. Here is the male, with double breast black band. Ils vivent près de l'eau, des grands fleuves, des lacs et des lagunes côtières, dans des eaux saumâtres ou fraîches. Ils se nourrissent de poisson, d'insectes aquatiques, de crabes, d'écrevisses, de grenouilles et de mollusques. Ici, c'est le mâle avec deux bandes noires sur la poitrine.
