I'm not very knowledgeable about birds, I didn't imagine the Kookaburras in large groups... whenever I've seen kingfishers before, they've been isolated...but it's usually mid-day when I've seen them and along a river bank :p |
Kookaburras normally have 2-3 young every year, and that year's young then stay on with the parents to help feed the following year's young. The youngest ones get kicked out of the territory just before breeding season (now, pretty much).
We have a family of 8 Kookaburras living around here. Mother. ing. Loud. Their nest is across the road in the forest, so they're never far away. They go mental in the middle of the night too, I have no idea why. Wakes me up all the time :mad:

A friend of mine and I were talking about crows awhile ago and we both thought that if crows were less common, they'd be really admired creatures for their distinct call and intelligence/chrome-kleptomania , but its just the noise they produce in their large numbers that people dislike.

Lol, we've said something similar. If only they had a nicer song/call, everyone would love them.
Where do you live? The crows around here are Torresian Crows, and their main sound is this semi-deep, loud "RAAR"
Some of the overseas crows have more of a higher pitched "SQUAW" sound I think? |
