Dacelo noveguineae - The Laughing Kookaburra

Description

This bird is common in Australia and New Zealand. I got the opportunity to capture its beauty because I was at the right place - the zoo - at the right time. The caretakers let it sit outside its cage and of course there was a croud of photographers around them! I joined them and took like a ton of pictures, until I watched my surrounding. The sun was rising behind me, and the bokeh behind the bird was awful, so I decided to take images from the other side. The other photographers were complaining, since I ruined their background "bokeh" with my appearance, but it was definitely worth it! The bird turned around and I got the best bokeh in the world. 

Do you want to look at it on your wall? society6.com/product/dacelo-no…
