The kingfisher diet consists mostly of fish, supplemented by a few invertebrates, smaller insects and vertebrates such as salamanders, mice and crayfish. The kingfisher will observe the water from high up in a perch or while hovering over it. Upon spotting a fish, the bird will go headfirst into the water after it, snatch the fish up with its bill and then kill it by pounding it with its bill.
The cache name of Kingfisher will be more meaningful once you are able to find the cache. This cache is designed for fun and will be a favorite of the younger set. The cache is located just off an asphalt trail in the Kays Creek drainage. It is very important that you return the cache to exactly as you found it.
CONGRATULATIONS to Desert Dawg and ETrunner for first to find.
