Green Kingfisher Birds Portrait

Two Green Kingfisher birds, a male and a female, perched together on a barren tree branch allowing a prime opportunity to capture their portrait.

This portrait of two Green Kingfisher birds resting together on a tree branch was taking in Texas Hill Country in Comfort, Texas in the USA. Very small birds which grow to about 7.5 inches long and only weighing about 27 grams, it is very easy to tell the difference between the male and female species.

The male has the broad chestnut breast with some green spots on the sides while the female has white underparts with two green chest bands and green spots along the sides of its belly. Both have the same kingfisher shape to their bodies, a short tail and a long bill.

In Texas Hill Country and other regions through Central and South America to central Argentina, these Green Kingfisher birds are often perched on branches which are low and shaded near the water where they can easily dive in after their food.
