Ordinary kingfisher: a small bird with a body length of16-17cm, a wingspan of 24-26cm, a weight of 40-45g and a life span of 15 years. Similar in appearance to the spotted kingfisher. But smaller, pale, with brown feathers above the ears, blue wings and tail, reddish brown lower body and a white spot behind the ears.

Kingfishers inhabit rivers, streams, lakes and irrigation canals with shrubs or sparse forests and clear and slow water. Lonely, usually living alone on branches or rocks near the water, waiting for opportunities to hunt. The food is mainly small fish, eating crustaceans, various aquatic insects and their larvae, and also pecking at small frogs and a small amount of aquatic plants.

Kingfisher can maintain excellent eyesight after diving into the water because its eyes can quickly adjust the contrast of visual angle caused by the light in the water after entering the water. So fishing ability is very strong.
