At only 13cm long and weighing less than 20g, the tiny and unobtrusive Madagascan Pygmy Kingfisher (Corythornis madagascariensis) is easily overlooked. These forest kingfishers hunt insects, small geckos, and frogs, which they watch patiently for while perched quietly on an understory branch. They are endemic to the forested regions of Madagascar. Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park, Madagascar.
