Great photos .........
We have resident kookaburras in our gum trees, too. When I go out on the back deck one of them cook, cook, cooks to me - I don't know whether it's Mr K greeting me in a friendly way or Mrs K warning me off and away from her nest. I love to hear them talking and occasionally laughing long and loud.

70755One of the amazing and beautiful birds here in Australia. How lovely to have one so near to you. hugs Helen
39739The tree above his head looks like a Robinia tree Monika - do you think that it might be one? Does it have pendulous looking little flowers in springtime and does it go a really limey green? Doesn't matter really what it is anyway - Kookaburras are gorgeous wherever they are. We have them all the time. Love Chris

no they are not gum tree.Sorry I dont know what they are.
Gum trees are a bluey green, with very tuff leaves , to deal with our climate .
