Kookaburras Laughing

Kookaburras love to sit in the sun

Hunting for food is their form of fun

Big round eyes and large strong beak

Ready to pounce on the prey which they seek

Fluffy feathers of blue, brown and white

Camouflaged well from everyone’s sight

They eat reptiles and rodents until they are sate

Or large juicy steaks from your BBQ plate!

They are up with the dawn as soon as its light

You will probably hear them so don’t get a fright

Soft cackling and hooting to begin with at first

Reaching a crescendo with a loud finishing burst

KOO KOO KOO KOO KOO KAA KAA KAA
