What a picture this particularly colourful bird is!
With its shiny blue plumage and orange belly, it is perhaps the most beautiful bird species in the Netherlands.
The chance of encountering them sitting quietly on a branch is not very great. After all, they are quite shy. Although many people will have had an encounter with a kingfisher in flight. With its distinctive sound, you will then see a blue flash fly by.
Nature in the Netherlands is beautiful and photographing birds has made me realise this more and more. It has made me look with different eyes at the diversity of birds in the Netherlands. And partly because of this, I was able to (re)discover the many species our country has to offer. It has opened up a new world for me.
