Watch your speed

  

Belted Kingfisher (Megaceryle alcyon) perched along Westshore Road in Bodega Bay on 11 November 2025.

P.S.  Did you know that Belted Kingfishers can fly up to speeds of 25 mph (40 kmh)?  (Some sources say they might be able to reach speeds of up to 36 mph (58 kmh)...1 mph faster than this local speed limit!)
