from Birdznerdz Hosted by Wren

The Kingfisher is an episode of BIRDZ where we get to meet a bird so precisely engineered that its beak inspired the design of Japan's bullet train — and find out how it hunts underwater while correcting for the laws of physics in real time. #BIRDZ #Kingfisher #BritishBirds #UKWildlife #BirdwatchingUK #BritishWildlife #NaturePodcast #BirdsOfInstagram #WildlifeUK #BirdNerd #RiverWildlife #UKNature #NatureLovers #BirdConservation #WildlifePhotography #FreshwaterWildlife #BirdsOfEurope #WildlifeGardening #NatureIsAmazing #BritishNature
