    Kookaburra sits on the old gum tree ...


    G'day all

    Many towns across Oz have a statue or model of 'something large' -- and Kurri Kurri in New South Wales, north-west of Sydney by about 200km has their Big Kookaburra. Standing 5m tall on top of a similar tree trunk, the tourist attraction dominates the town's shopping area

    As always, feedback welcome

    It's a giant Kooka alright. Nicely framed and good colour. Next time, back a bit so we can see the scale of it - just me being me.

      At least you have plenty of time to compose the shot without deciding to look the other way or fly off somewhere else.

        This is what I would love to get a shot of as I just love Kookaburra.
        So if I am in a 100 kilometers I will make sure I make tracks to it.
        Thanks for letting me know about this.

          Good one for the memories. and a joy to see. I bet the artist enjoyed making him as well. Are you going through Forbes?
