Found these 3 Kookaburra's trying to snuggle down for the night until we arrived.

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.
