I rescued these two sacred kingfisher chicks in January. They went on to someone who could care for them and were rehabbed to release. Which is nice.

Did you mean to type scared or sacred? Or both?

In Canada - we have the Belted King Fisher on our five dollar bill.

I got that - I was trying to be witty in suggesting that the little birdies may have been frightened too, considering their situation.

Thanx for the link!!
