Cool shot. Nothing says Australia more than these guys, I love them. They also appreciate good science fiction too, but you have to ask Shane about that ROFL

they are great little fellers, they never miss laughing at all my jokes which makes them alright in my book, good shot, not easy to photograph as they dont like folks sneaking up on them
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those that mind, dont matter and those that matter, dont mind!!!

if you come across someone without a smile,.................. give them one of your's....... and watch it grow!

never be mean with a kind word, ........................you may need one yourself one day!

just as I get used to today along comes tomorrow!

Gorgeous shot of the Kookas! And agree with Bandi - well framed in a natural setting.

What a great photo! My 10 year old is always taking photos of kookaburras... he just loves them. Great, as they are a much ignored but very helpful native icon. Hubby watched one snatch up a snake near our yard recently.. handy when you have children around!
