About These Birds
Bismarck Kingfisher
The Bismarck Kingfisher is a vulnerable, small forest kingfisher endemic to the Bismarck Archipelago in Papua New Guinea. It has richly colored rufous and blue plumage typical of dwarf kingfishers. It inhabits the dark forest floor and undergrowth, hunting insects, small lizards, and other small vertebrates.
African Pygmy-kingfisher
The African Pygmy-kingfisher is a jewel-like bird of the Alcedinidae family, with a wingspan of only about 10 cm and a weight of 12–13 g. Found in forests and wooded areas across sub-Saharan Africa, it often hunts insects on the forest floor rather than fish.
