User's notes

No laughing matter! Six Butcherbirds took on a Kookaburra with a Butcherbird in the air above the Kookaburra distracting it whilst two other Butcherbirds went for the Kookaburra's tail feathers. The Butcherbirds gave up after 5 minutes of constant harassment and flew off. Details of the Kookaburra are provided in following sighting 4485431.
