User's notes

The Kookaburras are nesting in a hollow on our property. I heard a commotion and went to check it out to find 6 kookaburras swooping a lace monitor that was at the base of the tree. It took off into the paddock when it saw me and the kookaburras followed it swooping at it. I have uploaded the lace monitor as a separate sighting
