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:
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? |
Well at least the crows stay relatively quiet until dawn! Are they loud hunters or do they just like to be social and stay up really late listening to tiesto mix sets?
I live in Wisconsin in the USA right now, and I guess it's pretty much the same across North America wherever there are crows. These guys make a noise similar to what you thought--a cawing/squawing onomatopoeia is accurate

This is what would be a small crowd of them taken afternoon in very early spring. Add at least 20-40 more and that's what likes to camp outside my house once every 4 days. I can hear them in the distance some mornings by some other poor bastards house :p |
