Animal A-Z

Kookaburra

Noisy sods first up in the morning...

I wanted to put both a Hug and a Laugh so put Like to mean both. I Googled them laughing. They laugh even louder than loons!

She goes home in the evening with the dew all on her wings
 
Upupa (sounds like something one baby hoopoe might say to another in the nest!)
 
Yellow mongoose
 
Another stripey beastie's in there somewhere:


So can you spot the
Zebra​
