I had to read a fact sheet about kingfishers and answer questions by writing them in my quality blog post
I enjoyed looking at the different birds and choosing one that I liked and finding information about it.
I found it challenging to search for how many eggs they lay.

A Kotare
Q Where could I find other species of Kingfisher?
A in NZ, Australia, New Caledonia, Norfolk and Kermadec Islands.
Q What months of the year do kingfishers breed?
A In early September and February.
Q Where do they nest?

Q How many eggs do they lay?
A four to six white eggs.
Q What do they eat?
A Fish,Crabs,Lizards,Mice,Small Birds,Earthworms.
Morena Zara,
ReplyDeleteGreat work at find ALL the answers to those questions. That must have taken you some time. I didn't know that the te Reo name is kotare. Did you know when I was little I had a pet kingfisher that I raised. They were one of my favourite birds for a while. Why did you chose the Kingfisher?
Ma te wa,
