The greatest number of species are found in the tropics and subtropics.
The most familiar of the tree kingfishers, subfamily Daceloninae, is the kookaburra, known for its variety of loud calls, some of which are reminiscent of human laughter.

 San Diego Zoo's Animal Bytes: Kingfisher
San Diego Zoo: western gray-headed kingfisher Halcyon leucocephala leucocephala and western woodland kingfisher Halcyon senegalensis senegalensis in Scripps Aviary; Sulawesi white-collared kingfisher Todiramphus chloris chloris in Tiger River and Parker and Owens aviaries; Micronesian kingfishers live in Wings of Australasia.
Kingfishers that live in forests, grasslands, and deserts have a different diet, dining on a variety of insects, spiders, reptiles, and small mammals, which they catch by spying the prey from a perch and darting out to snap it up.
Even snakes are sometimes on the menu: the blue-winged kookaburra Dacelo leachii is known as a snake hunter, grabbing a snake behind the head and bashing it against a branch or rock to kill it.
