 This is a windmill in the backyard of my property at a place called Samsonvale in Queensland, Australia.

I have a family of Kookaburra's which love sitting on the windmill early in the morning and late in the afternoon. They spot grasshoppers and insects buzzing around, then swoop down for a feed.

This particuler guy was admiring dusk last Sunday afternoon.

Marc.
