Speaking of kingfisher.....today at school my mate found a sacred kingfisher on the ground that couldn't fly. He assumed it fell out of a nest or something. He picked it up and gave it to me. I was carrying around a kingfisher for about 20 minutes! This is my favourite bird so of course I was excited and did not want to let him go. We took it to the vet and a wildlife rehabilitator is now looking after it. Anyway...just thought I would share my exiting story with some people. ~ JUSTIN CARPENTER~
