what a color...
what is it!

I guess "it's a bird" or "it's a kingfisher" are too vague to win this one. The only Kingfishers I can name are Belted and Green, and I don't think this is either. So, I'll have to leave this to a more worldly birder.
I must say that I'm checking the blog regularly now, eagerly awaiting the newest 'contest'!

just after you guys left Belgium last January, i spied one of these on the ponds nearby. They're stunning. It's not a green kingfisher, but it does have bluish-greenish coloration. You cannot help but rub your eyes in amazement when one of these flies by!
is this the common kingfisher?
It is not so common to look at!
indeed, Alcedo atthis! How unfortunate that this gem of a bird inherited such a mediocre name!
