Juvenile Blue-winged Kookaburra (Dacelo leachii) looking lost and alone on ground close to Tyto entrance. Poor wee thing. Might be injured. We'll pick it up and look after it at home. Or find a wildlife carer for it.
Avoid such well-meaning action. Leave the bird alone. If its life is truly threatened maybe look for close safe spot. Leave it to the parents then to do their job.
As they quickly did when this bird fluttered feebly off after our little session the other morning.
Let Nature be!
