Damn, Robert's on point. He went from like small time backyard conservationist to groundbreaking conservationist filmmaker capturing breeding habits of diverse species on the best film quality and thus providing us with a window into avian ecology we've literally never had before, at a level that is spoiling us. Way to go man 👏. This guy better have some awards.

Thank you SO much for creating this insight into the kingfisher’s lives. I used to live in Pocklington, UK, and I was lucky enough to watch kingfishers feeding, almost daily, in the small river that ran underneath my flat. It was magical to see that flash of blue and to see them returning time and again to their favourite ‘lookout’. 🌹

I finally got a chance to look into the world of a bird I have admired for so long. They follow me in the trees as I am going about 30 mph up a major creek on the Arkansas River. I'm 81 and don't go as often but love getting to know more about these beautiful creatures. Thank you so much, Mr. Fuller.

If you live near a body of water, make a shallow pond and stock it with small bait fish for them. Avoid goldfish, they have a compound which too much of will hurt the predators . But guppies or mollies can readily breed a lot in an aquarium and can be added to stock it in warmer weather.

Also, I didn’t see video of the first successful feeding. The first time she tried to feed them, the fish was too big. I’m guessing she hacked it up with her beak and fed the chicks with broken up bits of fish? I thought that birds ate it themselves and then regurgitated it into the chicks’ mouths.
