Kookaburras, native to Eastern Australia, laugh after dusk and dawn outside the bungalow. In the morning, these large stocky birds are hunting lizards and other small creatures, unperturbed by a photograph.
From Wikopedia:
"Laughing Kookaburra" uses its laugh to establish territory amongst family groups. One bird starts with a low, hiccuping chuckle, then throws its head back in raucous laughter: often several others join in. If a rival tribe is within earshot and replies, the whole family soon gathers to fill the bush with ringing laughter.
Interesting experience in the Australian bush!
