Australian Bush Favourites

The Australian bush is characterised by the familiar sights of thekookaburra, kangaroo, and koala.

Kangaroos can be found across Australia from cold-climate areas anddesert plains, to tropical rainforests and beaches, travelling vastdistances in search of food and shelter.

Like the kangaroo, the koala is also well-adapted to the country's dryconditions as they do not actually require water to drink. Receiving allthe moisture they need from eucalyptus leaves, koalas spend most oftheir time in these trees for this reason.

The kookaburra is fondly known for its distinctive call which soundssimilar to human laughter, and can be heard echoing through thetrees at dawn and dusk.
