One of my first shots for the day, / on visiting the Alfred Nicholas Gardens … taken 18-05-08

I love the quirky expressions that some animals can come up with. This guy was sitting on my clothesline one day so I just had to draw him. The original is coloured pencil and ink on board. I carved the background pattern out of lino myself, but credit must be given to Rhonna Farrer for the use of her stamps in the foreground. I am having an exhibition in August 2008, where the original Kookaburra and around another (planned) 20 pieces will be available, and limited edition prints will be available after then. For now, it’s just little greeting cards. I hope you like them, and please stay tuned for more!

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Laughing Kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) The largest Australian kingfisher, the kookaburra has a massive bill, a brown stripe through the eyes and over the crown, off-white head and underparts. It is mottled light blue on the wings and has brown bars on the tail. Its size is to 47cm. / Family members live in the same territory year-round and reinforce the boundaries at the beginning of the breeding season, calling together and awaiting the response of neighbours. Young stay with their parents for up to 4 years helping to the offspring. They hunt from a perch, staring at the ground and fluttering down to catch prey. / They breed from September to January and lay 1-4 eggs in a nest in a tree hollow or termite mound. The female and family helpers incubate the eggs and care for the young who fledge in about 5 weeks. / Their call is raucous laughing and their diet consists of reptiles, rodents, birds, insects and other invertebrates. / They inhabit Sclerophyll forests, woodlands and parks. The Kookaburra is a great Australian icon!

Laughing Kookaburra. These birds, members of the Kingfisher family, are native to Australia. They get their name “Laughing” Kookaburra, because of their raucus cackling call! The blue sky is real – it was a lovely sunny day (we had one of those once in Merrie Olde England! I think it was in 2006!)

Laughing Kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) Description / The Laughing Kookaburra is instantly recognisable in both plumage and voice. This large member of the kingfisher family measures 40 – 45 cm in length. It is generally off-white below, faintly barred with dark brown, and brown on the back and wings. The tail is more rufous, broadly barred with black. There is a conspicuous dark brown eye-stripe through the face. / The chuckling voice that gives this species its English name is a common and familiar sound throughout the bird’s range. The loud ‘koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-kaa-kaa-kaa’ is often sung in a chorus with other individuals. The Laughing Kookaburra also has a shorter ‘koooaa’, which is normally given when accompanied by other members of its family group. / Distribution and Habitat / The Laughing Kookaburra occurs throughout eastern Australia. It has also been introduced to Tasmania and the extreme south-west of Western Australia, as well as New Zealand. It inhabits most areas where there are suitable trees. In the central north and north-west of Australia it is replaced by the Blue-winged Kookaburra. The two overlap in range throughout Queensland, although the Blue-winged Kookaburra tends to occupy the coastal areas. / Food and feeding / Laughing Kookaburras feed mostly on insects, worms and crustaceans, although small snakes, mammals, frogs and birds may also be eaten. Prey is seized by pouncing from a suitable perch. Small prey is eaten whole, but larger prey is killed by bashing it against the ground or tree branch. Laughing Kookaburras often become quite tame around humans and will readily accept scraps of meat. This ‘pre-processed’ food is still beaten against a perch before swallowing. / Breeding / Laughing Kookaburras breed from August to January. The birds are believed to pair for life. The nest is a bare chamber in a naturally occurring tree hollow or in a burrow excavated in an arboreal (tree-dwelling) termite mound. Both sexes share the incubation duties and both care for the young. Other Laughing Kookaburras, usualy offspring of the previous 1-2 years, act as ‘helpers’ during the breeding season. Every bird in the group shares all parenting duties.
