Laughing Kookaburra - LP Zoo

This laughing kookaburra bird
Is a guest at Lincoln Park Zoo.
Through the Bird House my laughs be heard,
Marking territory I do.
A hiccuping chuckle comes first,
And then intensifies in tone,
Into a raucous roar I burst,
With head thrown back, I laugh full blown.
From land under my kind come.
Carnivorous, we like to eat
Mice and lizards and insects some.
Venomous snakes can be a treat.

Come on by and visit my place.
I'll try not to laugh in your face.
