The belted kingfisher is one of just a few species where the females are more brightly colored than the male. This sturdy bird has a pointed beak and short tail. You often hear them “rattling” before you see them. They dig their nests together in the banks along waterways with long tunnels. They only have two toes forward facing (most birds have three forward facing) and one towards the back.
Our Belted Kingfisher Field Bag is designed to hold a field guide, keys, wallet, and water bottle. These bags are perfect for birdwatchers, hikers, zoo docents, or your favorite nature enthusiast. Made of 100% hand-loomed cotton, all bags have a 1.5" black nylon webbing strap (adjustable to 62"), side pen holder, and back zipper pocket. Roomy enough to fit a small field guide and water bottle or a larger guide like The Sibley Guide to Birds. The bag's interior is scoop-shaped, making it easy to quickly grab your field guide before that bird flies away. Bag dimensions: 8" wide x 10" tall with a 2" gusset. Handmade with love by women artisans in Nepal who have been empowered to lift themselves out of poverty through dignified work. Fair trade.
