About These Birds
Common Kingfisher
물총새는 수로의 눈부신 보석으로, 무지갯빛 파란 깃털과 밝은 주황색 아랫면이 물 위로 화살처럼 다이빙할 때 번쩍인다. 맑은 강과 개울, 호수 가에 서식하며 물고기를 주식으로 삼는다.
Black-headed Paradise-kingfisher
The Black-headed Paradise-kingfisher is a spectacularly ornate kingfisher with a black head, vivid turquoise-blue upperparts, white underparts, and extraordinarily long white tail streamers. It inhabits lowland and hill rainforests of the Bismarck Archipelago, including New Britain and Manus, in Papua New Guinea. It hunts insects, lizards, and earthworms in the forest understory, often diving to the ground to capture prey.
