  • File: American Pygmy Kingfisher

    This image was taken in December 2008 in a mangrove swamp area just off the Rio Tarcoles in Costa Rica. This little Kingfisher (~ three inches tall) was totally consumed with preying on small crustaceans and seemed oblivious to us and our boat as we snuck in for the shot!

    Paddled around Blanco Oxbow Lake in the Manu area of the Peruvian Amazon, a fantastic way to get (somewhat) close to a number of birds! Taken May 5, 2012 with a Nikon D7000, 70-200mm lens + 1.7x teleconverter
