This is a Kookaburra. It is a bird from Australia. They are actually a kind of kingfisher. We took this photo in a zoo in the Canary Islands. They are famous for their loud, ghost like call, or 'laugh' as you can see in this song.
It was written by Marion Sinclair (9 October 1896 – 15 February 1988) in 1932.
That is so interesting! I can't believe that you got such a great picture from the zoo! I don't think that I have ever seen or heard a Kookaburra!
ReplyDeleteIt was in an open air bird area with a net over the top in the Canary Islands
DeleteGorgeous! When were you in the Canary Islands? What was your favorite part about that trip? Love youuu!
ReplyDeleteI do not remember what the trip was like, because I was 1 1/2 when we went!
