Pelargopsis capensis
Came across this guy during a walk along a reservoir. He was obviously waiting around for a nice juicy fish for lunch!
Stork-billed Kingfisher is a species of a variety of well-wooded habitats near lakes, rivers or coasts. It perches quietly whilst seeking food, and is often inconspicuous despite its size. It is territorial and will chase away eagles and other large predators. This species hunts fish, frogs, crabs, rodents and young birds.
