All photos of Blue Whistling Thrush parents and habitat on this page are thanks to Alexandra Makhnina, all
taken in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
Both parents take a lot of insects/invertebrates in to their young in their chosen nesting site.
Insects/invertebrates include moths, caterpillars, grasshoppers and worms.
The beautiful blue tail fanned out.
This is where they were nesting, by a mountain stream.
Who knew they were Kingfishers?
