They really are a neat bird - both varieties. I only learned recently that they come in white as well. I saw one once but the thing wouldn't open its feathers up for me. Your's is looking all majestic and shit while mine was just a giant white bird. Lol
Hehe, it looks majestic there but that was after me following it for a bit trying to get it to pose again. I was rather impressed, I had never known there was such a thing. It had a mate too, fortunately she was acting disinterested so he was going mad trying to impress. They make the most godawful honking!
That's always the case. For humans as well 😂
That worked out for you to see it and get a photo of it. I've never heard their call but I could see it being ridiculous.
It is most definitely the case for humans. I'm fact a tried and tested dating technique I think.
Their call us ridiculously loud, like a cross between a honk and a screech. I tried to record it but they stayed schtum whilst I filmed and started everytime I stopped!
