Racquet-Tailed Kingfisher

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

“Tanysiptera, the Racquet-tailed Kingfisher or “Paradise Kingfisher", the sexes may be similar or dissimilar, even in the same genus; the young are like their parents, or somewhat duller. The colours of the Family are most variable, a combination of blue, green, and chestnut being frequent, while almost uniform red, or black and white, are not uncommon; the beak may be black, red, yellow, or parti-coloured.’ A. H. Evans, 1900
