$19.95 – $27.95
Information about the Common Kingfisher:
The Common or Eurasian Kingfisher is a widely distributed bird native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa, mainly south of 60°N. It is a common breeding species over much of its vast Eurasian range, but in North Africa it is mainly a winter visitor, although it is a scarce breeding resident in coastal Morocco and Tunisia. In temperate regions, this kingfisher inhabits clear, slow-flowing streams and rivers, and lakes with well-vegetated banks. It frequents scrubs and bushes with overhanging branches close to shallow open water in which it hunts. In winter it is more coastal, often feeding in estuaries or harbors and along rocky seashores. Tropical populations are found by slow-flowing rivers, in mangrove creeks and in swamps.

Artist’s notes:
The Common or Eurasian Kingfisher illustration was completed on 3.10.2015. I’m starting to put together a collage of various species of the world’s kingfishers. I love this little birds – I remember watching one at the creek near where I grew up in Minneapolis. He sat perched on a tree , then occasionally would dart into the water, coming up with a small fish. The drawing is based on a photo by Jerry Ting and was used with permission.
