I used to have one visit every afternoon around 3pm. Almost set the clock by him. I used to leave scraps of meat on a post at the back fence, pretty soon there were two of them and then the Magpies turned up wanting their share as well as the Butcher birds.
By the time they sorted out who was going to get the freeby the ants were onto it! So in the end I had to stop it because it was causing far too many fights.
Hi there,
It's fun checking out the garden to see what wild life is lurking, the scenery on my travels, or simply the weather.
I am using a Canon EOS 1000D digital camera.

I remember a song I learned about kookaburras in elementary school, but this is the first time I know of that I've seen one. :-)
These are very "Australian" Karen, they don't do very much, but they're very cute and apparently easy to tame.
They also help to keep the snake population down.

The Kooka is a fun bird to watch though!
You mean Australians are cute and easy to tame?
Not this one. ;)
We're having fun feeding them all, Currawongs, Kookaburras, Crows, Doves, Murray Magpies and the blue faced ones.
