Minas de Riotinto, Hueva. El río es conocido por el color rojizo de sus aguas, la coloración proviene de los minerales hallados a lo largo de su recorrido.
Traipsing through some snowy woods yesterday I was surprised to hear and then see a Belted Kingfisher alight on the top of an old dead tree above an open stream. He didn’t stay long but long enough for me to locate him from 30 yards away and shoot a few frames. I wondered why he was still here in Minnesota near the end of November.
When I got home I did some research and found that Kingfishers are considered a partial migrant and can survive cold temperatures if open water is available. Most Kingfishers that breed in Canada, Alaska and northern Minnesota migrate to the southern United States, the Caribbean, Central America or even northern South America.
However, it is not uncommon to see them remain near open water during the winter in the central or southern part of our state. It is a mystery to me how they make the choice to stay or migrate.
One migration fact I found interesting is that when migrating long distances, females tend to fly further than do the males. Probably a lesson of some sort there.
