  1. @mybirdcards oh whaaat there should be plenty of #kookaburras coming up under the #kooka tag what the heck #ornithology fedizens 😆 at least one #kookaburra should match a #kookas tag

  2. We are home!

    #alpacas & #sheep seemed glad to see us. Our #Sikh neighbours did a good job looking after them in our absence.🤗

    During our driving we saw 12!!! #eagles, 1 #kookaburra & also about 20 dead #kangaroos - the dead 'roos mostly on our drive home this morming.

  3. #Anko branded items combined to keep the dust out and heat in for #BuildersTea.

    Kmart back around the start of Covid-19 went slightly #Australiana. The #Kookaburra cup being one of a series.

    The grey lid is what remains of an Anko squat square sided 4-cup #Teapot that received a mortal blow in the dishrack. 😟

    Neither item is made from low-heat-transfer ceramic.

  5. #Lyrebird pretending to be a #kookaburra. These guys are my absolute all time favourite bird. It performed for us non-stop for literally half an hour. Dancing, weird sounds, tail fanning. Just gorgeous

  6. Took a shortcut through a small industrial area in the SE suburbs of #melbourne the other day and spotted these cute displays.

    A pink #galah with a gorgeous head crest and a #kookaburra - these were painted on corrugated iron, which (I imagine) would have been challenging.

    Also a #birdofparadise, #butterfly, #puppy and girl with a watering can tending to the little palms.

    This was displayed on a brick wall of another nearby factory, separated by a staff carpark.

    An unexpected, but pleasant little find!

  7. This is no laughing matter. A man killed 350 #kookaburras on his property and he only got fined because he had the wrong gun license.

    In #Tasmania they are considered an invasive species (brought in by humans to eat snakes in the early 1900s ... I wonder how that worked out), and so receive no protection or legal status. The rest of #Australia protects them due to them being a native species.

    My question to my fellow #mastodon tooters, is this a normal thing to do?

    If there is an invasive species, does that give us the right to kill it? Does the rights of the ecosystem outweigh the rights of a bird? For a non vegan, I am sure the answer is quite obvious. Cut off the hand so the gangrene doesn't spread.

    In relation to #veganism though, this is one of those grey areas that I feel #vegans have had to really think about. Obviously the #vegan solution in this situation is to capture all the kookaburras from the land they have invaded, and release them in their native habitat. The only thing stoping the average person from doing this though is the cost involved and the lack of any real incentive from doing so. 💰

    So, are invasive species, such as the Kookaburra, fair game? What do you think?

    (And of course, my bias is showing, but do think of the more useful invasive species that also inhabit this land we call home 🐖🐔🐄🐑🐈🐕🐎).
