Belted Kingfisher Pins and Buttons

The belted kingfisher (Megaceryle alcyon) is a large, conspicuous water kingfisher. It is depicted on the 1986 series Canadian $5 note. All kingfishers were formerly placed in one family, Alcedinidae, but recent research suggests that this should be divided into three subfamilies. Illustrated by Paddy Morton

Belted Kingfisher - female (Ceryle alcyon). I went back to a perch I setup about 4 years ago hoping there was still a kingfisher in the area, I waited a couple of hours and just as I was about to leave....voila! Taken in Kanata, Ont, Canada with Canon 7D and Canon 300 2.8 +1.4 extender.

The Belted Kingfisher is a stocky, noisy kingfisher that lives across parts of the United States and Canada. Males and females both have shaggy crests and are colored blue and white. Females have rufous across the upper belly. This is our totally cute Birdorable version of a pair of Belted Kingfishers!

Show your love of this king of North American waterways!

This gorgeous and rare bird is notoriously hard to photograph and I was lucky to capture this image in the wild while canoeing on the creek. This kingfisher will transform your walls or your attire, creating a sense of awe and wonder along the way.

Belted Kingfishers would be downright dapper if not for their oversized head and bill. You can see them perching overhead on wires, phone poles, or branches, and diving headfirst into the water for small fish. The female is showier, with a russet band to complement her slate blue color scheme.
