    The Aussie Blue-winged Kookaburra Is A Weapon In-flight

    When you think of Aussie Kookaburra's, well the Laughing K is the one as it is a bit of an Aussie icon, but they have little known cousins in PNG and northern Australia as well. The northern Australian edition is called the Blue-winged K. On the perch it is disproportionally big-headed and slim...

    Normally I don't take photos of this bird, as it is an introduced species in Western Australia. However, I need a shot for a project I'm working on, and the light was so good this morning.
