[@abouttime5000]

There a few videos of these beautiful birds allowing human contact. Simply wonderful. I see people feeding other species of birds from their hands but i have been feeding breadcrumbs, seed in a feeder and peanuts to Blue Jays, Crows and Dark Eyed Junkos ( like little chickadees) for years and have never had even close contact. The crows have been coming back for a few years every day. Amazing to watch their vocalization when I throw the bread on the front lawn. One will land on a stop sign on the front of my lawn and caw away and within a minute or two the other 3-4 will show up. I live in a very cold area of Canada so I like to give them a little help to get through the winter months.

[@nyancat8828]

That's very kind of you but I hope there isn't too many breadcrumbs in the mix! They provide no nutrients for birds and can be very bad for them if in large quantities :c

[@PhantomWoIf]

oatmeal and half dryed fruits are better for them. you can form little pieces from oatmeal and give them instead bread.

[@sl7883]

i love that the moment you reach for the bird, it seems to flinch a bit until your hand makes contact and you pet it then its like "oh wait thats all you wanted?"

[@MrWolfSnack]

he's lucky these are tamed. wild ones will absolutely end you.

[@aryanbaviskar1186]

@@MrWolfSnack What do you mean tamed. It's illegal to keep these as pets in Australia.

I'm actually really happy that they just petted the bird's head, thats appropiate petting y'all :'3

[@Coecoo]

No, actually. Besides birds carrying a lot of diseases, they also need oil to keep their feathers water-proof which humans remove when touching them.

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

I’ve seen several videos of people petting (wild) kookaburras. Are they usually so tame and trusting towards humans? They are soooo cute, I would love going to Australia one day, so I can see all the amazing birds❣️❗️❣️💚💚💚🦜💚💚💚

[@NELCARM]

They adapt to humans pretty quickly. There are lots in big cities . They are great hunters that we Aussies are used to seeing perched on wires staring intently at the ground. If you can feed one you will get others to join in because they live in family groups not just pairs.I feed them lean raw beef strips or chicken. No processed food . At dawn & dusk they will find the highest spot in the ‘ hood to perch in & sound off,very loudly.Nesting season about to start.

[@ikanmasin]

No, they are definitely not. They are very smart though, and will allow human contact for opportunistic reasons in the urban environment.

@@melatomic As a tourist to Fraser Island I petted the feet of one near a campground. Guess it was accustomed to tourists. Still I was surprised that what I presumed to be a wild bird in a preserve, just accepted that.
