Ceryle Alcyon

The Belted Kingfisher (Ceryle alcyon) exhibits territorial behavior during breeding and on the wintering grounds. However, behavior during migration is poorly documented. Here, I report on kingfishers exhibiting territorial behavior during fall migration along the shoreline of northern Lake Huron, Michigan.

Clinostomum Complanatum

A survey of helminth parasites of 40 belted kingfishers obtained from southern Québec during 1982 and 1983 yielded 11 species of which Uvulifer ambloplitis and Crassiphiala bulboglossa were the most common. The birds had an average of 2.8 species each and 6 parasite species were found to be aggregated in the host population. Three parasites recovered were previously unrecorded from this host: Clinostomum complanatum, Capillaria sp., and Strongyloides sp. Comparison of parasite burdens between male and female hosts and between years revealed no significant differences.
