Kookaburra
This is a wild kookaburra but is obviously used to people as it let me get to within 5 or 6 feet of it. Taken in the gardens at Araluen, WA.
Kookaburra belongs to the following groups:
Animal Kingdom, Australian Wildlife, Birds and Creatures of Flight and The Birds Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints and Framed Prints

Love this little guy’s pose—he’s got his eye on something, and it’s probably you. . . lol

they are beautiful birds, and their laughter is truly maniacal….and hilarious…...
This is a great shot!
(but I have to say, it is a shame they are such ruthless killers of smaller birds…...where we live, we try to scare the kookas away….. )
Trevor Needham replied
I know what you mean, but that’s nature – beautiful but ruthless.

sad but true….I always feel mean chasing them away, because here on the farm I LOVE the sound of that laughter!!!! But I just try to keep them away from my garden and the little blue wrens….....
