Hi,

I have four of their relatives turn up for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Kookaburras to be exact, along with butcher birds and magpies! The kookaburras and magpies have a bit of a domestic until the kookaburras open their beak at the magpies while the butcher birds catch the meat in the air!
The magpies are renown for being aggressive when they have young, but by feeding them they are not a problem for me.

Regards,
Gordon.

What a wonderful wildlife series. So sharp even when in so close with a long telephoto. Well executed and many thanks for posting.

Cheers,

Thank you. I've never had a problem with maggies, but as much as I like the Kookaburras they don't belong over here
in the west.
