This is the same little guy who appeared in posting # 269 ... he obviously enjoyed his celebrity status so much he has returned every day since to visit. Obviously a very young bird, he continues to be harrassed by the Myna's and now also a rogue Magpie who has joined the winged vigilante force determined to make his life a misery. I, of course, offer him consoling words and his own personal photo shoots ... he seems happy with that.

Another great shot. As I said before, this series has the makings of a coffee table book. Good close study. Nicely balanced. Well exposed. You can almost read his thoughts... where's that worm you promised me a couple of sittings ago huh ?

Thanks guys ... The kookaburra hung about for a few days before moving on (sadly) ... so much character, and a really gentle nature too.
