I think it might be a kookaburra from Australia that one.. but i could be wrong! By the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel might interest some people!
What an awesome little video. From her spotting the fish so far away, to cleaning her beak and staring down the camera, and all the violence in between. 10/10
@@eggrollsoup It's a Belted Kingfisher, one of the few species where the female is more brightly colored than the male. Only the females have that rusty colored "belt" across their belly

01:57 The bird is like " If you like what you saw , then Like and subscribe !" , I love the way it looked at the camera heheheh =) Great catch of a fish and a great catch of a footage !
i have one of these beauties in a cat carrier right now. She knocked herself concussed on a plexi partition down at the harbour. i tried to shoo her into the bushes and she came straight to me. hopefully this morning she will be able to fly away. i put my hand into the carrier this morning to change the water and she hopped right on, was expecting a brutal peck, instead, a very gentle grip and her head cocked looking at me. What an honour! i hope she flies true this morning🤞🤞🤞🤞🙏💚.
@@kentuckywolf1239 aww, i took her to the wildlife recovery centre after two days because i couldnt get her to eat and she wasnt flying. she was very pert and alert though. i never followed up as i moved away shortly after.
@@annmorgana2848 I hate you had to take her in on such short notice but at least she was bright eyed and bushy tailed goin in, she should have a good shot at makin it thanks to you.
AMAZING! This takes “Beating your Meat” to a whole new dimension! What a great video! I love these birds but never realized he beat his sardine like that! Bravo my fine feathered friend, bravo!
I loved it when I first saw this beautiful bird pershed on a tree branch in my background, (above the trout ponds) used to get some pics of it, then I realized this was a belted king fisher...when through at least 50 trouts!!!!
Amazing that they make sure the fish is dead before swallowing...due to size it probably would not be fun if that fish were squirming around in the digestive tract....it is
For those wondering why the kingfisher is beating the fish, it to render it unconscious so when the kingfisher swallows, it'll have no issues with the fish not wiggling it way down to the stomach.
I'd imagine it's more likely instinctual muscle memory. Feral kittens have a tendency to bite their food and then shake their heads quickly back and forth as if to snap the neck of a small animal, even if never trained to do so. It's likely that some kingfishers started doing this and it ended up helping them not choke or cause damage from a conscious fish inside them, and so they lasted more often than others.
Wow that is amazing.. How it catch, smack, and eat that fish..didn't know it smack the fish before eat..and it did it hard! The fish must be : "O God.. O God.. Urgh.. Urgh.." 😂 😅..,, its wild! Really some great footage to see.. thanks for sharing! 👍
