This little bird definitely knows fashion, how beautiful the kingfisher is

China Science and Technology News Network, December 21 (Xu Qiqi) According to the Hebei TV Farmers Channel, a photographer recently shared a video of a "white-breasted kingfisher" observed and photographed in Henan earlier. In the video, a brightly colored bird with a naturally flaming red lip, with five colors of deep chestnut, blue-green, black, white, and scarlet, is particularly unique.

Kingfisher is a medium-sized water bird, which is a bird that lives or often lives in wetlands. There are 15 species and 48 subspecies in the genus Kingfisher. Kingfishers usually have thick straight beaks with relatively rounded beaks. The feathers of kingfishers are mostly blue or green, and different species may have other colors. They are very bright and beautiful.

Kingfishers like to live near small rivers, streams, lakes or in bushes. They live alone most of the time. The food of kingfishers is mainly small fish, and they also eat some aquatic insects and crustaceans.

Most kingfishers are resident birds, which means they do not migrate with the seasons and live in one place all year round. The opposite of resident birds is migratory birds, which refer to birds that migrate regularly and change their habitats with the seasons every year. There is also a kind of bird called a lost bird, which literally means a lost bird, referring to migratory birds that deviate from their own migration routes for various reasons.

The White-breasted Kingfisher has colorful feathers, a sharp and loud call, and a relatively fast flying speed. It was listed as a national second-class protected wild animal in 2021.

There is a technique called "Dian Cui" for making gold and silver jewelry. The "Cui" in it refers to the feathers of kingfishers. The jewelry made with this technique is brightly colored and shiny. However, the technique is very cruel to kingfishers. Nowadays, most of the techniques use goose feathers, silk ribbons and other materials instead of kingfisher feathers.
