The genus Pelargopsis includes three species in South and Southeast Asia, all of which are characterized by their unusually strong beaks. The best-known species is this one - the Stork-billed kingfisher- whose bill really lives up to its name. It is very similar to the bill of a White Stork (Ciconia ciconia) in terms of color and appearance. The bird feeds mainly on fish, but also on crabs and other crustaceans. It sometimes supplements its diet with frogs, lizards, rodents, insects and even baby birds.
