Habitat
The ultramarine Kingfisher's typical habitat consists of subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests within broader Pacific regions. Preferring areas from sea level up to 2000 meters, the ultramarine Kingfisher thrives in a variety of wooded environments including dense primary and secondary forests, Casuarina groves, forest margins, and regenerating scrubland.
