Laughing Kookaburra Baby
Pronounced Cook-uh-bar-ra
Like most babies, a messy eater!  That's minced steak (ground beef to Americans) all over its beak.  Only two of the group of 5 fed it today.

We don't give the kookaburras a large amount of food as we don't want them to be reliant on us - it's not good for them. 
They clean their beaks by rubbing them on a tree branch.  If they're on our deck railing, it substitutes for a branch.
