The Willie Wagtail is the largest, and most well-known, of the Australian fantails. They are active feeders and can be seen darting around lawns as they hunt for insects on the ground. As they do so, the tail is wagged from side to side. Insects are also chased and captured in the air.
The Sacred Kingfisher is 19–23 cm (7.5–9.1 in) long, and feeds on insects, small crustaceans, fish, small rodents and reptiles. Usually, they will sit on a low branch and wait for prey to pass by. Then swoop down to grab the prey and return to their perch to eat. They are found throughout Australia and New Zealand.
