Gosh, how could she digest it? I love the way it was so timely captured.

Do these larger kingfishers regurgitate pellets like raptors do?  

That looks like a lot of shell that that bird has got to break down otherwise!

FYI, a large bolus of chyme was regurgitated about 35 mintues after the swallow.
