Somewhere about 10years ago said: This kookaburra is pleased that he got a mention on NPOD. Yes Greg, cheeky they are, and out-do any alarm clock for waking one in the wee hours. But I don't think they deserve the name: laughing jackass. :)
Greg from
Australia about 10years ago said: Cheeky critters, aren't they Christine? It always brings a smile when I hear them launch into their raucous cackle!

Jim from
Nebraska about 10years ago said: I love this photo, Christine. How could you resist such a "sweet" face? The flowering tree/shrub in the background provides a nice color accent.
