Kookaburras live in open and dense bushland, including rainforests. As they feed primarily on insects, worms, crustaceans, Spiders, snakes, lizards and even small birds, they can live in any well-treed area where these creatures are abundant.

Kookaburras are also a common sight and sound in suburban backyards in Australia.

They swoop down to grab their prey, and may swallow it whole or, in the case of snakes and lizards, use their beaks to bash their prey against branches to kill or subdue them before swallowing.

Kookaburras nest in tree hollows or even in burrows dug in termite nests in trees.

Kookaburras live in pairs. Females lay clutches of two to four eggs in tree cavities, and eggs are incubated by both parents. Chicks leave the nest approximately 30 days after hatching. Offspring may remain with the adults to rear other chicks. Kookaburras can live into their 20s.

Kookaburras incubate their eggs for around 24 days. Initially, the chicks are pink and bald, but their pin-feathers come through by the time they are sixteen days old. Fledging occurs around 5 weeks after they hatch. The baby kookaburras are ready to leave the nest by about 36 days, but continue to be fed by the parents until they are around three months old. The young birds stay with their parents, helping to form large family groups, all of which help to raise each generation of chicks.

Kookaburras can live up to 11-12 years in their natural habitat, and from 15-20 years in captivity.
