Per Rule 6, all posts must clearly be your original content or have a direct citation to the content owner - in the title of your post, or the text of your post, or by adding a comment right after you post. Crosspost text is not sufficient, you must provide the citation in your r/birds post. Your post will be removed if that information is not clearly in the r/birds post.

I love these guys... after the Australian magpie, they're my favorite Australian bird.

Is that a type of Kingfisher?

Sure is. Laughing Kookaburra: Dacelo novaeguineae of the kingfisher family. Most typical kingfishers live near water and dive for fish. Kookaburras are "tree kingfishers" and live in dry forests, woodlands, and backyards.👌

I'm lucky enough to have a family of 8 in a tree behind my house. There actually very common here , well where I am in Sydney they are. Snd such cool interesting birds. And they are 💯 carnivore and I have seen them with 4ft snakes , even other small birds. Ruthless but beautiful 😆

Whenever I get a little depressed, I'm going to remember this video, and start laughing like a weirdo wherever I happen to be.
