A trick I learned feeding a crow I rescued, is to use chopsticks when feeding. They acted like a beak stand in and protected my fingers from the hungry little bugger. 😂
Their mini T-Rex growling sound they use for greeting is just beyond awesome. Fierce and handsome at the same time.

What amazing birds.......from the kingfisher family. There are species of birds that are of a very high intelligence.... I'm always amazed at how willing your birds are....also magpies, to be so close to you. It's more than just food, I think......but their curiosity as well as being a highly social species.

Did you make that up? Kookaburras are not particularly intelligent and the are most definitely not a social species, in fact they are highly territorial, experiments have shown they will refuse to take food from another’s territory even when it is very close to the edge of the other’s boundary. Kookaburras have tight familial bonds but not with other groups of kookaburras and will defend their territory make them only social when females leave the family group to breed with other males. Highly social species are birds that do not exhibit territoriality such as Rainbow lorikeets.

"Now who wants a treat?" "Well I didn't fly down here for nothing!"
I live inside a forest (in India). A few crows come to my window every morning (and sometime repeats their visit during the day). I give them a treat they like - locally they are called 'gatiya' - little pieces of fried noodle like sticks made from bengal gram flour (it is a local snack). What is amazing is the pinpoint accuracy with which they pick up the tiny tid-bits from my hand - never ever did their beaks touch me - forget about hurting me. It is so wonderful to have these friends visit me and trust me enough to allow such an interaction. We literally have an eye-to-eye conversation.
They're so big but they just look like regular small birds. So cute

It’s one of those rare occasions where I’m glad I’m seeing double.
I never saw a kookaburra so close up before. I love the brown and black stripes on the tail. And it's awesome that these little guys trust you!

I LOVE Kookaburras!! Such smart, sweet & friendly birds. Thank you for sharing this. ❤
I SO wish we had kookaburras where I live! The birds are SO LOVEABLE!
They are so dang adorable❤ love the little dinosaur noises they make😂
Birds are so swift and intelligent! You marvelously built their thrust. You can now experiment to reveal how clever they are.
Love this, I have a family that visit me too, along with lorrikeets, king parrots, rosellas and other randoms. All just as friendly It’s such a privilege to have wildlife in the backyard 😀😀
These are very bright birds!
Dearest australian friendly Birds 🤗❤️🙋

Such big beaks when they’re so close!! My Dad used to feed blue-winged Kookaburras sporadically and got such enjoyment out of seeing them close up. We lived right next to the Murray River and saw so many varieties. Thanks for bringing back some great memories! ❤

You saw so many varieties of Kookaburras? Blue Winged kookaburras are rarely seen south of Brisbane (except near the coast) so seeing them on the Murray must have been a treat. Don’t worry about their big beaks, they’re not particularly strong.

Agreed, here in Scotland we have a scottish version of the Australian magpie, the Scottish version is more puffy and doesn't swoop down and attack people, I don't know if that's a good thing or not, it'd be funny to see birds swooping down at people, but I can see why some wouldn't like it. 😅
So nice. They come to you to get treats. Thanks for looking after them. Sharp pointed beaks.
Kookaburras have the sweetest faces!
That is so cool.

Yipes.....they appear a little rambunctious to me....I wouldn't want to feel a stab from one of their strong beaks! I love wild animals and birds too, but maybe not in my lap! The wild javalina here in Arizona's White Mountains know me...but I take no chances......ok. I speak very softly to them at all times....and never turn my back to them! 😆
Dwarfs is so cute❤
You must have an angelic soul to attract such innocent birds :)

That is so cute that they fly to your lap. It’s always a nice day when wildlife comes and see you.
They look like lil raptors :)
