This listing is for a limited edition, fine art print of my original painting of a Green Kingfisher called “Gone Fishin’.”
I came upon this mighty, albeit little, bird while drifting through a mangrove forest in Costa Rica. He was patiently waiting for a fish to swim his way, hence the title. I don’t think he minded much that I snapped a bunch of photos. He was too busy, eyes never leaving the water.
About the bird:
From our friends at Audubon:
| Conservation status | May have declined in parts of Texas with loss of streamside habitat. Recently has begun nesting locally in southern Arizona, spreading north from adjacent Mexico. |
|---|---|
| Family | Kingfishers |
| Habitat | Rivers, streams. Always found near water, but sometimes near very small streams with only intermittent pools. Also around edges of ponds and larger rivers. Favors areas where there is dense low growth on the banks, providing low perches close to the water. |
This little kingfisher seems oddly proportioned, rather like a sparrow with the bill of a heron. Living along streams and rivers, it is often overlooked, because it tends to perch low among vegetation near the water; its sharp ticking callnotes may give it away. When moving up or downstream, the Green Kingfisher flies fast, with quick wingbeats, very low over the water. “
