Birds of the Philippines

Photos and videos of wild birds found in the Philippines. We travel all over the Philippines to document and take pictures of birds. Our goal is to make this site a resource of information and images about wild birds of the Philippines.

  1. Birds of the Philippines
  2. Kingfishers

Collared Kingfisher

COLLARED KINGFISHER
Todiramphus chloris
Alcedinidae Family

Bird #22 - June 2008

This is called White-collared Kingfisher in the Kennedy guide. We first saw this during the guided birdwatching trip at UP, led by the Wild Bird Club of the Philippines. After seeing it there, we realized that it is common and found even in our own neighborhood.

This is such a big, noisy, and conspicuous bird that you would think that we would have better photos of it. When approached however,  it tends to fly off  and then land and perch on a branch that's just beyond the "ideal range" of your photo equipment!
