Giant Kingfisher

I would say this guy is nearly as big as a Jackdaw. The fish he caught took him twenty five minutes to batter before he could even start the process of swallowing it!!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

I've never seen this one, it looks close to the size of our kookaburra which I think is the largest of the kingfishers - what a bird and what a shot!

[Pat Knowles]

I wouldn't have guessed this was a kingfisher, he is massive & looks so different!
