There are roughly 90 species of kingfisher. All have large heads, long, sharp, pointed bills, short legs, and stubby tails. They are found throughout the world.

Kingfishers live in both woodland and wetland habitats. Kingfishers that live near water hunt small fish by diving. An instance is shown as below:
