2 Wet Wild Kookaburras Waiting out the Thunderstorm Inside 

It's cool that this woman has become a pillar of her local bird community. They're still wild but sometimes it's like they think, "I am in need of guidance, I will visit the Food Lady."

I can’t believe wild birds are that friendly and not afraid of people at all.

I would feel honored to have them as houseguests, they are so cute.

She's a real bird whisperer. Those kookaburras look so relaxed about being inside a human's nest - and decided to declare a temporary truce for the privilege.

Kookaburras are the coolest birds. When I was a kid I found a baby kookaburra whose beak was stuck in between the palings of an old wooden fence in our backyard. Poor little guy was freaking out so I freed him or her and gave them some sliced Devon before they took off to reunite with their parents who'd been observing us closely. Every single day when I'd get home from school they'd be waiting for me in the backyard. In Summer we'd leave the sprinkler on for them. After a while there was a small flock of random native birds I'd rescued - two magpies, a currawong, three kookaburras and they all just hang out in our backyard. Growing up in Australia is awesome.

Those birds are smart! The first bird perched on her arm for a minute to be polite, then he went straight for the heat source, the lights we're keeping him warm and drying him out. The second bird stayed with the woman because he knew he needed her protection. Proves they both understand their environment and status.

The fact that a wild bird learned to trust you this much speaks volumes on how wonderful you must be. Please continue being the special human that is you.

Now that looks like a home that you are living in, not some sterile display house. NEVER apologise if your home looks as welcoming as it does now. And keep up the great interactions with your feathered friends.

Such a friendly kookaburra, the other one sounded rather nervous.

No possible way to resist getting them in from the weather, Was it just me or are they behaving extra extra nice to get to stay in….on pretty sunny days they are getting in to everything? Cute, thanks for sharing!

People talk about all the bugs and the "strange" creatures that you have in Australia, but they say nothing about all these lovely animals. It's amazing that wild birds, like these, end up trusting a human so much. Thank you for uploading the video, and also thank you so much for caring about these lovely creatures!

My sister has a similar relationship with her kookas here in Perth...they are often found sitting on her ironing board just inside the door and once she found one in her handbag!!....(brilliant pic)..we feed them when there and they sit on her arm ..makes our visit seeing the kookas up close 🇦🇺😊

that shot of the kooka staring into the window is so funny

What a chatty lad. Obviously enjoyed being given the tour. :)

What a gorgeous house & garden you have. What cute kookaburras. Awesome that you’ve made friends with them like that

It's amazing how well trained the human that lives here is. Those birds certainly know how to take care of their pets!

I love it, bird is chatting back softly. Trust.

they love a ride on the armbus. Just too cute

I swear aussies always sound so pleasant and friendly. Wish I live in Australia.

I had no idea that kookaburras could growl like Dwarfy, reminds me of vocal fry :) Adorable.

They are adorable. I wouldn’t say no!

I wish we had Kookaburras here, they’re so cute. I like how they waited to be invited in.

When we visited Oz from the UK we were amazed how friendly wild birds were. Kooks and cockatoos would hop around on the table as we picnicked and we had a magpie take up temporary residence in our camper van.

So cute with him looking in through the window.

Those kookas seem to trust you implicitly 😃 So lovely to see ….. You have a lovely, leafy backyard, too. Beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing both videos. Much appreciated 💚💚

Australia, where even the birds are laid back

We are indeed blessed when wild birds choose to spend time with us.

you have a really nice house and garden. Those creatures make noises like something which crawled out of the pit, but they are very cute. I only get laughing doves, turtle doves, rock pigeons and sparrows and none of them want to sit on my arm

You are a beautiful soul. And those birds know it. Even the way you take the time to give a heart to all the comments. The world needs more people like you in it.

Love the dawarfy’s gravelly voice, so cute. Thanks for uploading ❤

I just love Australia and the folks that live within. And these little characters are the cherry topping for me. 🥰

That house and garden are divine.Clearly these are birds of taste and discernment .

You can't imagine how much I envy you! 🥰

Everything in this video is cute! From the birbs to the beautiful voice ♥️

To interact like this with our wonderful nature, makes me feel you are truly blessed. Best wishes from the U.K.

Thank you for always being so kind to them ❤️ Also Dwarfy's voice is adorable 💕

so sweet..... you are a magical person.... you just call them and they just listen to you.... 😍😍😍... how sweet..... i wish i were a kokaburra.... 🤗🤗🤗

So seeet to see how Dwarfie relaxed when getting on your hand! He was like: "mom's getting me! Now i will be okay!❤"

Living in cold and wet Ireland it’s lovely to see these beautiful birds

Those kookas have you trained!!🤣🤣💖💖💖 Apart from the slippery leg!!😆 you will have to work on that!!🤣 Beautiful clip as always 💖

Awww! This is ridiculously cute. 🥰

Awww so CUTE🥰🥰‼️

Everything about this video is beautiful. x)

You are so loving and kind to these darling birds!

How friendly and intelligent they are! I am shocked that they are so friendly with humans! Most birds like to keep a distance from us.. these seem like buddies ❤

As you would say no worries mate love the accent could listen for hours praying for Australia 🇦🇺 from the 🇺🇸

- I really want to meet kookaburras!!! I would like to live in Australia and meet some kookaburras! They are wonderful birds... ❤❤❤

Such compassion for these silly little creatures 🥰

Beautiful birds

So vocal, I love it when they talk. Gorgeous little feathery buddies🤍.

How adorable are those birds! Awww the little one, complaining, he was soaked! Amazing trust for this lovely lady. 😊

I wish the birds in the U.S. were that friendly! I would love to have my cardinals and woodpecker come in for a visit, or sit on me. So cute!

Rain is not loved by many birds Great to see them warming those feathers and having a great time A very vocal Dwarfey looks wonderful ..Another great .👍

What a remarkable animal...

Australia has the best birds.

Your kookas are better trained than my border collies. Past and present.😱👍 If i didn't know better, dwarfy was using a lot of profanities.🤭🤣

I've watched this so many times now! Love to see the birds responding to you, but this is so special because of the funny talking that Dwarfie does. It's so disarming!

They know exactly what you are saying.

I am envious of how social many types of birds from down under can be.

Aww glad you guys are safe and dry !

Soooooo sweet. You are a very special birdie lover. LOVE your videos. 🥰

Would love to visit Australia once and see all of it’s beautiful animals for real.

Awwwww! I can't get over how cute kookaburras are! Especially when they're all wet. 😁

He really seems to like your workout equipment for a perch.

i absouloutly love birds like magpies and kokobarus. We throw some food in our backyard, and mostly the magpies come. The kokobarus mostly come on the weekend, but they dont come as much as magpies. Thank you for taking care of them, i can see you love them so much, and that they love back. I have seen you doing it and got inspierd. i started to invite wild birds to my backyard. when i go on walks, i usaly just see magpies so i feed them alot.

What a cool human being, living in a cool home with a cool garden, that has the coolest birds.

That one bird makes an amazing sounds.....wow. They are so comfortable coming in and they know they can leave seeing the doors open.

I never knew what a kookaburra looked like, thanks. very cute and friendly. 🪶

I envy Australia, love your front yard 😄

Wish I could make friends like that with some of the wild birds we have here!! Nice weight room by the way.

They're beautiful birds, Kookaburras! I used to feed one from my hand at a mates place in Newcastle!

What a magnificent house. My absolute favourite with the veranda and trimmings. Buried in plush plant life. To die for. :-)

You are a true bird whisperer.... Best wishes from Poland!

They are very smart and beautiful

That is so Awesome reminds me of my Mother growing up with the Blue jays that use to come to her before Big Storms hit to come in the house. It all started when my Mother found a nest that was knocked out of a tree during a Storm and she saved these three baby Blue Jays and after the Storm put them back with their nest into the tree.

Wow

What a beautiful garden/oasis you live in. The Birds treat you as one of them, which shows how wonderful of a person you are! 😀

Beyond Dream for most.... Unbelievable.... 💖💖💖 It's like a surreal fantasy world.

Honestly Kookaburras are super chill. They’re no where near as jumpy as other birds and this is shown really well by this video.

You guys are adorable . Thanks for clip. Love Australia x

Happy Christmas to u your back yard feathered friends and a Happy Christmas to EVERYONE reading this! 💕💙💜🙏🙏🙏🙏from the east coast of Australia!

Our Australian birds are very smart. They know who they can trust.

Those kookas have trained you well.

This is awesome! I have pigeons that approach me but your two birds are louder . . . much louder. Greetings, from the Jersey Shore ;)

They're so friendly! They must be pretty smart, to realize that you won't hurt them, and that your home is a safe place to wait out the storm. Your home is beautiful, by the way!!!!!

What a beautiful woman. The universe will be rewarding you!

ALL LIVING CREATURES HAVE FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS....OMG 🤗🐧🦤❤🧡💛💚

This is way too precious, if somebody had told me this was possible I wouldn't have believed them, but oh my goodness how beautiful is this.. 😍

My, what a beautiful place you have there! That patio-garden area looks wonderful. I love when 'my' hummingbirds come down to talk to me and visit. Instant subscriber!

This country is really something else. Our birds are amazing

in my experience kookaburras have always been pretty calm and friendly but this takes it to another level

A real Disney princess!

What gorgeous birds! What a beautiful place to live! 💕

AUS seems so cool. I'm scared AF of snakes though and the most deadly live there. BUT, I'd consider moving there to have Kookaburra friends!!

A lucky, wonderful Lady… Beautiful, sweet birds… Paradise!!!❤

I HAVE been feeling so depressed for a long time and this lovely video really lifted my spirits. thank you so much!!

Awww the poor wet kookas, so nice of you to provide not just a nice place to dry off, but treats as well! Love seeing all your birdie visitors!

That's a treat for Kooka being carried in!🥰🥰good to see

What peculiar looking birds!

Those birds are so adorable!!!
