An original oil painting by Sandra Whyte of the Kingfisher (Kotare) in a wonderfully natural scene. These idyllic spots are relished on farmland throughout New Zealand. The Kingfisher is often seen on a post or wire with one eye on you and the other on a possible meal, meters below. It's not easy getting close to a Kingfisher to view their unique beauty. If you're lucky, you'll spot one on your back fence from inside your home. Here you can study their regal look with up turned bill and dainty white eye lashes. That's about as close as you'll ever get to a Kingfisher!
