It's grinning because it's known as a Laughing Kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae). Very common in Australia where Rob lives. Basically a giant kingfisher that eats snakes, lizards and small mamals and has a laugh-like call "koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-kaa-kaa-kaa"

The bird itself seems to grin. What kind of bird is it? Never saw that before. --- "Rob Studdert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=2577262
