 We had a dawn chorus from a group of six of these birds this morning... I just had to draw one. These birds' calls sound just like laughter - they are real characters!

 Oh, thank you clorophilla! I came to the computer intending to find a link which showed one laughing. They DO make you feel like laughing, don't they?

 ... and yes, they are a type of kingfisher. There are four distinct species in Australia which range in size from 28 - 42cm. We always have them around... we love watching them and hearing them laugh.
