Kingfisher, Alcedo atthis on branch. Female. The kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) is a water loving bird from the kingfisher family (Alcedinidae). It is a striking sight with its contrasting blue and orange colours, but also a very shy species that is rarely seen. Alcedo atthis is the only kingfisher species that occurs in northern Europe including the Netherlands and Belgium, at least the subspecies Alcedo atthis ispida. Most kingfishers live in the tropics[2].
The kingfisher is a typical fish-eater (piscivore) and is thus strongly bound to water. It prefers running waters. In most of its range the species is common, but in some areas the kingfisher is threatened with extinction.

Hello, nice that you take a look in my shop. So my name is Gert Hilbink, living in Coevorden. I have been doing photography since I was 13, inspired by a biology teacher at the then U.L.O. school in Coevorden. Generally I mainly photograph nature but actually find everything that can fly very interesting. If you have any questions about my work, it is possible to contact me via the contact page of my website GertPhotography.nl
