That's the bird alright - It made a crazy bird call though, it sounded like it was dying

Thank you very much my friend - I hope you're doing well

Yup some birds make the most horrible noises! But the funniest birds are wild rose-ringed parakeets, when they talk to each other they sound so human - like they having a regular conversation. Smart little birds, you can hear them sqwak their heads off, but are really hard to see.
You are welcome - I'm doing great, but feel like I'm going to wilt in the heat hope you're doing well and the weather is better at your side

Stay inside with the aircon - We have a bird over here which is called a Kookaburra, also known as the laughing bird. They sound like a long loud human laugh, it's amazing

The weather is lovely here considering it's "meant" to be winter - Night 20-24 degree days and sunny

We do exactly that But cooped up in one room for too long, I've been feeling like a little mole actually. There isn't much to do here in the summers I guess! Oh and yeah, I know about the kookaburra. An even more amazing bird is the lyrebird. It's a really clever mimic, it can even imitate the kookaburra check out this video [link]

I'm really missing winters now Here the temp's soaring to 45 degrees Celsius and above. Today it's better though!

We get hot 40-45 degree days too in our summer, but thankfully it's winter now - It's nice to have colder days for a change

and OMG that bird is so awesome - It does sound just like a Kookaburra

I'll forever be a dark and gloomy winter person it's just unfair winters and summers are always unevenly divided!
And yeah that lyrebird is just so cool, I discovered it while making an assignment for zoology. I put a similar video of it as part of my presentation "Bird Vocalization" and blew my teacher's mind. I got full marks

Hehe, that's awesome - Considering I've always lived in Australia... I've never seen / heard of them

Now it's my goal to find one

There's a couple of lyre birds at the Adelaide Zoo. They're supposed to be pretty shy birds in the wild. I don't have a clear idea of where wild ones are found in Australia, so good luck finding one!

Now I have a good reason to go to the Adelaide Zoo

They don't have wild ones in WA unfortunately - I will see one ONE day

I would had definitely love to own this bird I think I would had just put some cotton in my ears to avoid the sound as I would love to have it!

Hehe, that's a good way of doing it - We turned to walk away when we heard the noise... We thought the bird was getting killed, it was horrible

Thank you very much Brian - I've been "trying" to take more photos of things, other than nature

But I still need to throw a few in there
