Robert are a wonderful man. The Kingfisher is confused but healed and got bling. I'm sure its got stories it will tell of this.

This man is an absolute example of a true humanitarian. Simply wants to learn from the wildlife in his area.

[@jennyc1164]

Such gentle care and beautifully photographed, Robert. Thank you so much. There is no limit to the love you show for wildlife. 🙏💚

[@Master_Petes_Theater]

Great job, Robert! That kingfisher is a wee beauty! No doubt it was suffering from shock due to concussion and likely would not have survived without assistance. I found a mallard duck on the side of the road that was lethargic. Her mate was nearby. She must have been brushed by a passing car. I took her to the vet clinic for observation and after a few hours they called and said: "You can pick her up but beware! You won't know it's the same bird!" She recovered and turned feisty. She was raring to go! I took her back to the same location to find her mate for a reunion! I hope the pair raised a lot of healthy ducklings over the years! 💕

I live along the Rocky Mountains and have hiked many places with rivers. You can usually see these little birds diving into one part of the river, to then see them come out along place from were they entered, of course with a fish. I love this little bird.

I'm a bird 🐦 watcher. Kingfishers are right up there at the top of my list along with ospreys and roadrunners! And hepatic tanagers, sulphur-bellied flycatchers, hummingbirds, and.....!!!

[@RobertEFuller]

Thanks I just do want I do and try to make a difference

[@julieprior3126]

How lovely to see this bird recover and be returned to its home area. It's mesmerising to see the beautiful colours close up. I found out recently that the kookaburra is a relative of the kingfisher. They are a similar shape, but bigger and with muted colours. When they are not doing the full 'laugh' for which they are famous, the other quieter noises they make are hilarious! Thankyou Robert.

I have seen Kookaburras on a trip to the Daintree rainforest 🇦🇺 amazing bird’s

[@Mama-Ames]

💕 Many years ago, I unexpectedly spotted a truly exquisite, yet unusual bird perched alone in a tree just outside my kitchen window. This extraordinary bird was focused intently on the creek below, which afforded me enough time to observe & make mental notes of it's lovely characteristics. I later identified him as an adult, male, Kingfisher. At the time, I had no idea what this magnificent bird was, but felt certain I had been blessed with a moment quite rare... having NEVER noticed a bird quite so beautiful, or unusual, in this area (SW Ohio, USA). To this day, I am so grateful to that beautiful Kingfisher who stopped in the woods in my backyard that day & waited patiently to "go fishing" in my little creek. He will always hold a very special place in my heart, as I KNOW it is that one glorious Kingfisher who deserves ALL the credit for my discovery of my deep love for birds. Because of him... I became curious about the birds in my area. And from that moment on, I have not only loved watching them, but I also protect & feed them & provide them shelter. I know I will forever care for & love with all my heart, the wide variety of sweet, beautiful feathered friends who visit & reside here in my own backyard. And I KNOW... IT IS ALL BECAUSE OF YOU ~ dearest, most exquisite Mr. Kingfisher, whom I will remember always & will love... forever.🙏♥️🇺🇲✌

[@DigbyAngus]

Kingfishers are gloriously coloured and superb to see in the wild thank you for sharing it

[@ToddAndrewCole]

Thanks for the helping the bird Robert. Wishing you all the best. I wrote this poem about the kingfisher: Make Me a Kingfisher! If I could be a bird, I'd like to be a kingfisher. Who doesn't want iridescent aqua-marine feathers that flash electric in sunlight!? Then there's that big, long, fat, beak; size does matter! Don't forget about the symbolic significance of being king of something; that must feel grand! I'm not too crazy about the prospect of eating raw fish all the time, but the whole being able to fly thing should more than make up for that. And I love the water! Yes, Make me a kingfisher!

[@RobertEFuller]

Thank you for sharing that with us all.

@@RobertEFuller My pleasure. Thanks for the wonderful videos.

I’ve only seen Kingfishers flying 3 times. Twice down the river Darenth and once on the old watercress bed on the river Nailbourne near Littlebourne in Kent. Truly a beautiful bird so rarely seen.

[@RobertEFuller]

[@lucieni]

@@RobertEFuller All I saw was a cobalt blue flash of colour fly past me down a river/stream and realised it was a Kingfisher! A truly beautiful and rare sighting of a shy bird in my own experience.

[@oneandonlyjaybee]

@@lucieni if you've been somewhere and seen one, return when you can and find somewhere comfortable to stand or sit, somewhere your outline isnt obvious and you'll be amazed how often you end up seeing them. They're addictive

[@lucieni]

@@oneandonlyjaybee Thank you… I will do just that!

@@lucieni good luck. A pair of small binoculars such a 10x25 or 8x30 also help.
