    What a cool looking bird. I have never seen the likes of him. He looks like a cartoon with that over sized beak. Lovely capture!!

  • Karen Scrimes replied

    The Kookaburra is an iconic Australian bird that is most famous for its raucous laugh! A very cheeky bird, they will often swoop down from the tree and steal your sausages straight off the BBQ. Aussie kids sing a song about the kookaburra and mimic his ‘laugh’..very cute! Aboriginal legend has it that the bird is telling jokes!
    Thanks Elizabeth :))

    Kookaburra’s are so cute. I love birds! There are not many here. I live in big city. =( There are lots of pigeons though.

  • Karen Scrimes replied

    I love Kookaburras too! Thanks AngelArtiste :))
