"Canberra News, Views and Opinion"
Haig Park these days is home to rabbits and possums, but yesterday the Kelpie of Few Accomplishments and I encountered a baby kookaburra.
Despite being very fluffy it was still more than capable of flying when I tried to get closer for a better pic. No laugh however.

Too cute. Totally made my day.
Love the description of your dog! Brill.
This is one of the top things to like about Canberra. Oh god, now I’m doing it.

Agreed re: birds (parrots!) being one of the best things about Canberra. Although, when I was asked recently what I thought was good about Canberra, I answered “low access barriers to participation in the life of the community” and got a funny look. I probably should have just mentioned parrots.
If there’s a better looking bird than the Kookaburra I’m yet to see it.

I have plenty of pics of Rainbow Lorikeets in b & w.
Nice one. Love the Canberra birds. Weirdly, I seem to see millions of parrots but hardly any kookas.
