The Kookaburra

The laughing Kookaburra is native to the East Coast of Australia. They are white in body, wings of brown with a flash of blue. They can become very friendly with people and are known for the raucous laughter heard on opening this page. Campers are likely to see and hear Kookaburras while at Camp.
