    I love Kingfishers! I'm wondering into which of the general categories mentioned in the previous lesson do they fit? I thought probably "Other"? Incidentally, "kingfisher" is one of the nature-based words that was removed from the Oxford Children's Dictionary in favor of words like "broadband". This prompted naturalist Robert McFarlane to write the wonderful book The Lost Words. Perhaps instead of removing the words from the dictionary, birding and other nature studies could be (re)introduced to children!
