Good afternoon Gill. We do not have them in Switzerland, but we have them in Italy "Martin Pescatore" is how we call them.

I'm sorry you have a headache. I hope you feel better soon. That's a beautiful kingfisher. We have kingfishers here in the US. No plans here. Hope you have a great day.

We have kingfishers and many other birds that we see in our garden specially it is nice to watch them frolic in the birdbath.

Good morning. It is a cold start to the day here today again. We are having typical weather for this time of the year. Your brother sent you a nice photo, that is a pretty bird, I am not certain if they live around here or not. I hope that you can rest and get rid of that terrible headache.

Yes, I believe we have dwarf kingfishers here in my country. It's evening here. Will cook & wash the dishes after, then, do my laundry.

We have kingfishers in Australia that look similar to this. I wonder if they're the same. Different species probably.
