Two kookaburras in late afternoon winter sunlight
We have been waiting
I wonder if she'll feed us
It's getting so late

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Such charming birds! Great shot!
I like that they are looking in the same direction. Sweet-looking birds.
Cute little birds - I remember learning a song about the when I was little!
Those are the cutest, most adorable birds I've EVER seen. How can I be my advanced age and never have seen a picture of a kookaburra? So adorable that they come to you to be fed.......and even let you take their photo without startling.
I once came within - no kidding - two feet of a gigantic eagle. He was perched on a railing on an overlook platform in Clayoquot Sound. AND I had my eye looking through my camera, and took a picture, BUT I TOOK IT IN THE WRONG DIRECTION. I was so fascinated by the refracted light in the sky, that got my last shot. Then the eagle flapped up and away and I cussed myself for missing the shot of a lifetime. Always so close, but no cigar! hee hee.
Beautiful little birds, Gemma, and a wonderful shadow shot for the day! Hope your weekend is going well!
These two almost appear to be smiling - knowing full well that the photo artist captured their great look and excellent shadows!
Well, did you feed these adorable little beggars?
oh, how this makes me smile....first the picture, then the haiku (it is exactly what their expression is saying) then me singing "kookaburra sits in the old gum tree....." and takes me back to childhood!! Thanks for the smiles Gemma!!
Are these young birds? They almost look tame - especially if your haiku is describing them!
The little guy on the right has the cutest expression on his face. What a wonderful capture. Hope you gave them some late din-din. genie
they're so perfectly posed for you
they're adorable
the light is golden
So cute! Never seen birds like this before!
Irene
what a cute shot....
Are they saying sweet nothings to each other?
Apples equally well to my magpies!
What do they eat and are they waiting for you to feed them? They are soooo cute!
I love -- and envy -- your birds (how could you not love these guys?)
