Kookaburra pair swaying in the wind
Kookaburras have an endearing habit of swaying back and forth when sitting on a branch. Today a pair sat cosily together on a branch, chewing the breeze. It’s soothing to watch their synchronised swaying.
For a giggle, here’s a short extract from the above video showing my favourite bit:

That is one hilarious video, it was almost making me sea sick watching it. 🙂
Thanks for sharing. Love the video.
Thanks Sue and Pamela! I’m thinking it’d be a good video to play in a loop on the television at a dinner party. People can watch it and chill out during breaks in conversation!
Cheers
