Bloody Kookaburras. I still recall one of those cheeky beggars swooping off the fence and landing on the side of the BBQ and then flying off with a piece of meat!

Not sure if I would try it but that fella looks to have some meat on him
Really though, we used to have one when I lived in Mt Evelyn that used to come down and nick stuff off the BBQ all the time so I used to cut up a sausage and leave it on the side of the BBQ frame so he didnt get burned as he tried walking on the grill one time to get to them.
He also nicked a piece of chicken off my plate once, scared the crap out of me when he flew down over my shoulder.
Great pics rovercare...we get all those birds at our place also but i am no good at photography but do feed he butcher, Lorikeets, etc and goanna's eer sorry Lace Monitors regularly
Goanna! the old man, went up to the dam to find what the stink was last summer, it was a poddy calf that had drowned, next doors cattle, we syphon feed from the dam, only to find a great big goanna tucking in, yum yum
Rather than start a new thread have dug this one up.
I have dropped a bit of grain during feeding stock etc. Look who has turned up Like to have them stay. They are rather tame compared to other wild birds here.
