Kookaburra

The Australian kingfisher known as the laughing kookaburra is one of the largest of the species, total length 28-42 cm (11-17in) and may be the heaviest species, since large individuals exceeding 450g (1lb) are not rare.

Super portrait! Always reminds me of a stop motion Christian cartoon that played here in the US
in the 60s and early 70s called Davey & Goliath. Goliath was Davey's talking dog and there was
an episode where he said "Kookaburra, Davey. Kookaburra." to remind Davey
that he should confess to having cheated in a test!
