I think Scuff should be allowed to post as long as the picture has been done on an etch-a-sketch.

Re: Show us your birds

This was snapped at the Millennium Stadium during a rig for the Rugby Finals. It’s one of the birds that scares off the pigeons and seagulls from the roof.

Bloody Hell Rob, it’s like Noah’s Ark down there!!!!

You have great light too

Is the Kookaburra related to the Jay? It sort of looks like a Jay that Salvador Dali has designed.

Nice pics btw and keep up the baby Kiwi search please.

Some of them were taken in Aussie - the kookaburras included. I'm pretty sure they're part of the same family as kingfishers.
