When I started blogging in 2006, I read for the first time about kookaburras and somebody send me a link to its laughter. Since this time it is my favourite bird and I only regret that we don't have them here in Belgium, lol !
As I think I told you before, Gemma, I only know Kookaburras by the song I used to sing in grade school. Now I've met them twice in your photos and feel so lucky to have done so.
wow!!! he is super cute!!! I never saw one before.
Darling picture! My NYTimes crossword puzzle the other day had "Laughing Jackass" as a clue for Kookaburra. Or maybe it was the other way around -- anyway I had to google to learn more about the bird. So it was fun to see your naturally posed picture. I can almost hear him.
thanks for introducing me to this guy, what a stunner he/she is.
Oh he's cute - are they quite tame?
cute :) seems like it's smiling. I also like the background and the sun light coming from the left side.

Oh, he is adorable and how wonderful to have him visiting on your veranda. I'd love a visit like that :)
It is almost a golden light in the photo :)

This is lovely- I've never seen a kookaburra before, so thanks for the intro.I too know it by the Guide's song "K sits on the old gum tree..".
He's such a cute little bird!
What a cool looking bird and photo! Love It, thanks for sharing.
