For me, the coolest thing about them is that they’re in the kingfisher family.
And I just had to look this up to confirm. Neat! They have the look, but I never made the connection. TIL!
The reason I ever looked these birds up in the first place was, funny enough, because of the reason mentioned in the Wikipedia article: “The loud, distinctive call of the laughing kookaburra is widely used as a stock sound effect in situations that involve an Australian bush setting or tropical jungle, especially in older movies.”
