I photographed a kookaburra at the Fresno Chaffee Zoo when we went down to CA this past month. This is a great picture of one.
When I was growing up we learned a song in singing school that went:
Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Merry merry king of the bush is he
Laugh Kookaburra laugh Kookaburra
Gay your life must be!
Once we learned it then we'd sing it in rounds! Brings back fond memories.
WOW - he is gorgeous - we used to sing about the "kookaburra sitting in the old gum tree" when I was in Girl Scouts - don't think I even knew what a kookaburra was then ~
What is it that they eat to have such a large beak? Don't see how they can fly with such a huge head. Seems like it would throw off their balance. Lovely bird! TFS!
Is it sitting in the old gum tree? LOL. Well, he does look like a merry king of the woods! Beautiful photo. (I hope you know the Kookaburra song that I'm referring to here.)
This gorgeous kookaburra was sitting in the tree above our campsite. Love the blue colours. The kookas on the east coast where I live are usually grey/brown.
