unusual visitor

[Matthew Frawley <>]

I'm in East Kambah, on the other side of Drakeford Drive, closer to Mt Taylor, and there are three Laughing Kookaburras in the gully behind our house that we see almost every morning and night when we take our dog for a walk.  We also hear them a lot as well, at dusk or dawn.  They spend most of their time on the powerlines behind a house that has large aviary.

I heard a kookaburra at home (Kambah) last week. Also unusual, though not a first. They are regularly perched on the light poles on Tuggeranong Parkway adjacent to Mt Taylor.

went into my front yard right now to find out what the commotion was about - and found a kookaburra sitting in my leafless ash tree, just metres from the front doot. The first one in my yard that I can ever remember. The local noisy miners, magpies and pied currawongs are not happy!
