Laughing?

Well maybe not but this kookaburra has at least cracked a smile. TeeJay and I stopped to look at some caves and rock formations when this chap came really close.

This thrilled TeeJay as she has been hoping to get a shot of one in the wild and I too as I have not seen one in the 3 years I have lived here.

We did hear it and a few others having a laughing session later on and what a wonderful sound it was - they actually do laugh.

We are now in Bathurst - the home of V8 Supercars - and I am in heaven. Tomorrow we will drive the track and take photos before heading off to the Blue Mountains to check that they are indeed blue before hitting the Sydney stores :)

I have decided I need to find a job and house in Bathurst so I can go to the racing each year without the hassle of finding somewhere to stay and the exorbitant cost of everything just getting here.
