Good evening,
A newcomer has adopted our place as home. Yes, you guessed it from the picture. No question, it’s the Dacelo novaeguineae. Or the terrestrial kingfisher. But more commonly, a kookaburra.

Such a strong looking thing, with muscular body and long, bold beak with of course that distinctive call (or laugh). This little guy (or gal) has a liking for prime mince (not surprising as kookaburras are carnivores) which we ration just enough to keep him / her interested.
Bye for now, BomberBoy
