where do kingfishers dig their nests?
user
Kingfishers typically dig their nests in the side of riverbanks, usually in areas with soft soil and undergrowth. They will often choose a location with nearby water sources, as they require easy access to the water when catching their prey. Kingfisher nests can vary in size and shape, but most consist of a small, shallow hole dug into the bank, with a single entrance and a chamber for the eggs.

Kingfishers typically dig their nests in the sides or banks of rivers, streams, and lakes. They prefer locations where the soil is soft and easy to excavate, and where there is abundant vegetation for cover and camouflage. They may also use abandoned nests of other bird species or nest in man-made structures such as bridges or culverts.
