Species : Dacelo novaeguineae - Laughing Kookaburra
The Laughing Kookaburra comes from eastern Australia and is spread throughout south-western parts of Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand.
Recognize this bird is quite easy (by sight or by its unique koo-koo-koo-kaa-kaa loud scream which reminds us laughter).
The Laughing Kookaburra is monogamous. This bird's nest is usually a simple hole in a tree. During the breeding, the males take the parenting responsibilities just like the female and they both take part equally during incubation time.
Size : 45cm lenght.
Weight : 0,5kg.

Location : Ménagerie du Jardin des Plantes, Paris, France
Camera : Canon EOS 400D
Lens : Sigma 70-300mm F4-5,6 DG APO Macro
Camera Settings : 1/400 - F5,0 - ISO 200
Post-Processing : Photoshop CS3

Coucou ! :)

Non, j'ai pris la photo depuis l'extérieur de la volière, je devais à peu près être au niveau des mangoustes jaunes si tu vois où elles sont.

Au fait, tu as retrouvé ta carte mémoire ?

Ok, ok, je vois pas en détail mais quand j'y retournerais je regarderais tout ça!

Pour la carte mémoire, oui je l'ai retrouvée! Je me suis tapé l'aller retour dimanche matin, le trajet dans le bois sous la pluie, mais elle était bien là, trempée. Un petit coup de sèche cheveux et elle se porte comme un charme, je n'ai plus qu'à trier :p
