It's such a shame the kingfishers got their nest raided and I think rats are kind of the perfect size to get in a kingfisher's nest.

翠鳥巢遇襲一事太讓人痛惜了 我知道以老鼠的體型大小 能自如鉆進翠鳥巢中

And they're a sort of staple food of otters and kingfishers and, especially in the breeding season, the kingfishers eat them a lot and give them to their chicks.

它是水獺和翠鳥的主要食物之一 尤其在繁殖季節 翠鳥會吃大量的大頭魚 也會用來喂養雛鳥

I've been sitting in my hide all morning, trying to film what's going on with the kingfishers' nest and I haven't seen a kingfisher, which means only really one thing to me, is that that nest isn't working.

整個早上我都在掩體里呆著 嘗試著拍攝翠鳥巢內的情況 但是我一只翠鳥都沒有看見 這只能說明 鳥兒棄巢了

Well, I'm just outside the kingfishers' nest and I think the chicks have hatched because yesterday an * kingfisher flew upriver past the house carrying a fish, and that says to me it's going to feed its babies.

我就在翠鳥巢的旁邊 小鳥好像已經孵化出來了 因為昨天有一只成年翠鳥啄著魚從房前 向上游飛去 在我看來 它是要去喂它的寶寶

The kingfisher, the most glorious of divers.

翠鳥 最出色的跳水健將

Job done, now back to his kingfishers.

完工 現在回去看看翠鳥

The kingfishers have chosen a good spot to nest.

這對翠鳥夫婦選了一個不錯的筑巢地

I can hear a kingfisher outside now.

聽起來現在就有一只翠鳥在外面

Yeah, and then that is the perfect size for a kingfisher nest chamber.

是的 而且這個大小 正適合翠鳥筑巢

The kingfishers did investigate it briefly, but then, to everyone's disappointment, they totally ignored it.

翠鳥在對鳥巢短暫探查后 便置之不理 這讓大家大失所望
