They are a great feature in many suburban areas and a pleasant Sunday afternoon is often spent with friends outdoors with a BBQ and drink, everyone with a handful of mincemeat. Hold a piece in the air by two fingers and the Kooka will silently glide down and snap it from your fingers whilst in flight. Another favourite is to lay bits out on a rail and the birds will glide down one after the other and grab it on the wing. Good fun and amusing.

I was a zookeeper for 11 years and the Kookaburra was my favorite. We were big pals and we did the Kookaburra laugh together many, many times. The birdhouse exhibit was mouse infested and I fed him mice frequently. He would toss them in the air, catch them by the tail, twirl them around and thump their heads on his concrete water bowl. Then he’d toss them in the air a second time, catch them, and swallow them headfirst. That was more than 50 years ago and I still miss my friend. Thanks for posting.

Depends how dry. We have been helping a couple of kookaburras feed their young because the drought has made natural prey scarce and the bloody crows get what little there is. At least as adults, the babies will have some prey to feed on now that we have had so much rain.

@@janekay4147 yes she has done her homework. You may want to investigate more about these forests. There are Eucalyptus and Mulga woodlands that receive considerably less rain than the moist forests of the eastern U.S. If you look at the range of the Laughing Kookaburra you will see that it extends quite a ways inland in Queensland and New South Wales where there are dry woodlands with only seasonal rainfall.

That's why Kookaburras that you can find all around the world are enjoyed in equal measure. Evolution truly is a wonderful miracle of nature, is it not?

First thing I noticed about the Kookaburra was his broken beak.

@alexanderdickson419 4 жыл бұрын

I am not sure what caused the broken bill in this case, but kookaburras can suffer from bill rot. It is caused by feeding the bird soft food like mince meat (ground beef). The food gets stuck to the upper bill and becomes a site for bacterial infection. If a kookaburra is fed meat it should be in chunks or strips, not minced or ground up.

It might be why he’s in the zoo, they also do rehab and if he’s not able to hunt normally because of it he may have been placed there for life to help him

It looks like they've shaved it down on both sides. When it opens it's beak, the tip is shaved down on both sides - that would actively prevent it from slam-feeding, a natural urge to these birds. I have misgivings on the treatment of Australian wildlife by outside organisations.

I remember being like 13 doing my early morning paper run before school. Dropped a whole bunch by mistake and perfect timing a whole family of Kookaburras in a nearby tree started their early morning call/laugh. And I took that personally..

Humans don't realize that a rolled "r" is the punchline to the funniest joke among kookaburras, we just don't know what the joke is.

In music class in elementary school, I can't tell you how many times we sang "Kookaburra Sits in the Old Gum Tree" - and every time I would sit there and wonder what they actually sounded like. It's nice to finally learn the answer!

@@Enneamorph Maybe, maybe not. It's not really valid to project nuances of your own accent onto another accent. Just accept the way people talk, like others accept the way you talk. And isn't it nice that she's making this beautiful creature known to folks in another part of the world? Be grateful and gracious for that. P.S. Not to mention that she has a lovely beaming personality and is full of enthusiasm for her kookaburra.
