Move over, let me scratch through there
Uploaded: July 28, 2008
Tony was unloading the trailer with the help of this Kookaburra. No matter what we move in the yard they are there beside us looking for something to eat. We have to watch out for them all the time, you never know where they are. Lens aperture F/2.8, shutter speed 1/60sec, focal length 6mm, Taken in our carport.

Oh my goodness, wow I would love to get so close to a Kookaburra...Heavens what a fantastic shot..I love Kookaburra..I think they are just so cute.Chris Ebben July 29, 2008
Thanks a lot. They are always hanging around, they know where the food is. They just look if I pat them. Yes thanks, I'm on the mend. #6247800John Connolly August 03, 2008

Why do you have to watch for them, do they attack?Chris Ebben August 13, 2008
No they don't attack, you just have to be careful not to walk on them or sit on them. They are so trusting of us they don't watch out, we have to!!!! #6310582Susie Peek-Swint August 16, 2008
