This is a much better capture of a laughing Kookaburra. It is actually the world's largest Kingfisher.
Constructive feedback is your greatest compliment; caring enough to bother saying something ... thanks for visiting!

I know some people are annoyed by this delightful bird but not me!! FANTASTIC capture Helen!! I so wish I could've gotten a shot of one these guys half as good as this one when I was in your neck of the woods.

wow this bring me back some 26 years ago traveling in "Tasie" and the first time I heard it, he seems to laugh when you've done some fullish thing, any how it was my case :))
