I just saw one of these on a branch beside our pond! Welcome kingfishers! I hope these beauties stay a while.

We live in NE Indiana near the ohio line. Have had a pair of Belted Kingfishers at our pond for a couple months, they dive in and come up with a fish. Love watching them.

I have a pair of Belted Kingfishers that fish every morning in my backyard pond in central upstate NY. At first I thought they were pileated woodpeckers until I finally took the binocs out to inspect them. What a grand surprise it was to see they were kingfishers!
