Fine art illustration of a Belted Kingfisher (Megaceryle alcyon)
Artist’s notes:
The Belted Kingfisher was completed in 2008 as part of an (as yet) unpublished field guide to the Reno/Lake Tahoe area. As they are one of my favorite birds I had been meaning to draw one for some time. I remember watching these interesting birds on the banks of the Minnehaha Creek where I grew up in Minneapolis. I loved watching them perch on a branch, appearing to not even be looking at the water, then drop into it instantly, returning with a small fish. The drawing is based on a photo by P. Bruno.
