A Wild Encounter- The Feathered Joker- The U.S.S. Minnowprize

in #photo7 years ago

The microscope has grown legs and run away, it seems!

Or more than likely, got packed into a box that is buried under another box.

While the crew is relentlessly hunting down their lensed companion, we have a different kind of friend to show you!

During our first night on Fraser Island we decided to pop down to the local pub and have ourselves some tasty noms and a cocktail or two.

Mid-sip, a huge kookaburra came gliding through the main dining area. And promptly went full speed, beak first into the window with a resounding thud.

After laughter much akin to the bird's we jumped to our feet to check on the poor thing. He was fine, although his pride was severely bruised.

A couple days later, our little friend returned to the scene of the crime. He seemed no worse for wear, but did seem a little more cautious when gliding towards things that appeared to be clear skies but were actually forcefields.

And he definitely was not afraid of people getting close!

(Pardon the rotation in the beginning, we may have had a couple more cocktails.)

Hopefully we will have Microscopic Monday on a Wednesday! Keep your eye out for a microscope on the run!

Good story and good photography.

Nice pic with good serenity environment

The kookaburra looks so cute. It kind of reminds me of a pokemon.

Wow, is amazing I love it

Nice post friend, thanks for sharing

Good shot close to the bird, is very nice, although its beak is very sharp.

Interesting!

Awesome! I do love kookaburras - one of the few birds that I knew instantly what it was the first time I heard it at a zoo (having never been to Australia...) Thanks for sharing the story as well!
 

Great job..I'm really digging dis!
