I was thrown by the Kookaburra in Baton Rouge. Was this a zoo, or something?
Along way from home, that one. We have them around our house a lot. And they always seem to laugh when we've tripped, or done something stupid. I'm sure that's just coincidence.
Wow. Must'a been the link from the previous comment. Oopsy. This is better...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kookaburra
I meant belted, too. What a goof!
Almost Jim... it's a belter of a kingfisher for sure :-) btw your link goes to some grape plant ?
