oh my goodness, there were about perhaps hopping all over the picnic ground and they truly were like mice running around.. A magpie periodically tried to grab one but they were too quick flew through that waist high fence and into the scrub.. Now I know why that big headed kookaburra hangs around at that spot.



kookaburra was introduced to WA and another Australian native bird considered vermin.





his one is actually in the middle of a hop....lol

Magpies, Raven, Kookaburras, and currawongs are meat eaters... so they like lizards and other birds babies....



mice and rats as well. Kookaburras eat snakes too.





Yes, they're waiting around for those little birds.
