Kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae): This is the largest kingfisher species on our planet reaching up to 42cm (17in). It is an iconic bird in its native Australia. They are actually tree kingfishers. Thank you Valerie Penfold for sharing your photo taken in Victoria, #Australia. #kookaburra #kingfisher

I live in Phoenix along the canal, and for many many years a solo kingfisher would be in the area. It would frequently sit on a power line over the canal, & I noticed how it would always (& seeming with precision) sit absolutely midway on that line. I miss it. Been years now.
