Kookaburra's alighting weighs heavy on Leadens



Sun's shining, sky's blue, Laughing Kookaburra's sitting pretty - till it's time to move on.



Move that goes down like lead balloon with territorial pair of Leaden Flycatchers. Male proves more aggressive of the two.



But flying up an angry storm, though prompting a flinch or two, fails to do the desired. Kookaburra stolidly fixed to branch, flycatchers vanish to sulk unseen. Also unseen, probable nest somewhere near. 

Cape Pallarenda Conservation Park this morning.
