Thanks a lot. He scratches around when we are doing anything in the yard, looking for food. He will eat out of my hand, so I get fairly close. #6224441Sam Britt July 24, 2008

It's a Kookaburra. Did you see him sitting on the guide pole on the trailer with Tony in "Move over, let me scratch through there"? Our yard is full of birds, they know who will feed them in the bad weather. Thanks for commenting, I'm pleased I could show him to you. #6256436Patricia Ronan August 13, 2008

Thanks a lot. I am trying to get one of them to let me pat it. It will if it can see the food. #6435910Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
