One morning a few weeks ago, the aviary birds were very noisy. I looked out the kitchen window and saw this sitting on the clothesline (appologies for poor quality pics, couldn't get close enough & was in a hurry to take photos as it wasn't hanging around long)....






Getting ready for take off...

Had to make last 2 pics smaller as they were too big lol sorry

Incase a few people are not sure what it is....

It is a Kookaburra

Ooooo I guessed it right too, I was thinking it's not a Kiwi whats it's name now.. and it came to me before I saw what you wrote..
Great pictures!!!

LOL I should of made it into a guessing game lol

Glad you like the pics

So cute! It looks like Einstein with the feathers on it's head!

Gosh I love those crazy birds. Used to hear them all the time when I lived at the bottom of the mountains. Theyd come and visit us too.. laughing all the way!! hehe They have such a distinct call. It sounds like histerical laughing. Love it!!!

that picture is a HOOT! LOL It totally typifies what australia is - a loud kookaburra sitting on a hills hoist clothes line..

I love it!!

aww yay, i love kookaburras!
we have a weekly visiting koukaburra who likes to sit on our clothes line or fence post - i always try to snap a pic of the gorgeous lil thing but he aludes me. I throw him a piece of chicken or bread or whatever but then out of no where the six-sensed blue eyed resident crows appear and the battle is ON. lolz
too funny.
yesterday the crows took a bath in our papillon's (dog) left over water tub outside. it was very humourous took video with my phone but it was soo blury.

cool pix btw.

Had some nesting in the gum trees at the back of home for years.
Havnt seen them there since the drought---but have been around occasionally this summer.
