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.
Laughing Kookaburra
The laughing kookaburra is the largest kingfisher in the world, famous for its raucous laughing call that has become an iconic sound of the Australian bush. Despite being a kingfisher, it rarely eats fish, preferring terrestrial prey. Family groups perform chorus calls at dawn and dusk to mark their territory.
