Cute pic.
For some reason this pic made me chuckle. Payback for every time a Kookaburra has laughed at me :)

I startled everything with my flash! :) But after first shining a bright spotlight in their eyes to focus on them ... they can't see to move :)

Cool picture. Love your night pictures. To first spot them you must have infrared vision.
