While outdoor dining these Kookaburras came down to see what we were up to.
Our delightful native is approx 30cm (12 inches ) from head to tail. Very gentle and laugh a lot.

This is a fabulous shot of these tow Laine, well done! Loads of lovely detail and a great composition...love it!

Do not leave your BBQ unattended with them round, you will loose the lot. They work in teams to distract and raid tables etc. Very smart birds

They are just adorable. However, when having a lie-in they can be quite noisy birds!

They certainly look like two characters! A very nice capture. V

Marvellous to see! Whilst I can see the family resemblance to Kingfishers, I see they rarely eat fish unlike ours. It seems they aren't afraid of humans when there's food around!

I remember learning the children's song about it in school- as I am writing this I realise that it was a translation of the Australian original from the 1930es.... It's a small world after all...filled with lovely things to see! ~V~
