Examples/!Animals/kingfisher

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

The kingfisher is 16 cm. to 17 cm. in length and can be found on river banks, streams and lakes. The kingfisher has a low, rapid flight and its bright colours warn predators it is not good to eat. It builds a nest tunnel in sand or earth banks where it lays five to seven round, white eggs between March and August. The kingfisher feeds on insects, tadpoles and fish which it swallows head first to avoid choking on the scales. Pollution of its habitat has reduced the kingfisher's numbers.�*Text*14�Draw�Hilighter   Ll	�Ll
