I had a tough time choosing which of Kookaburra's photos to showcase today for a few reasons. First, they're all really good, and second, I wasted an hour trying to figure out what a "kookaburra" is. I was going to guess it was some kind of ridiculous-looking bird and have fun rambling on about that in this post, but then I looked it up on wikipedia and discovered that it
is in fact a ridiculous-looking bird, and completely lost interest. But let's have a look at that photo. It turns out that Kookaburra specializes in collecting ambulances and emergency vehicles, which could work out well if I can put her in touch with my hyper-active nephew, who collects G.I. Joe dolls with their limbs torn off. There's a certain kind of comfort in specializing only in certain kinds of Transformers; it narrows the field and shields you from the full epic futility of trying to collect them all. Me, I decided long ago to only collect the ones that turn into
barracudas, and I only need one more to complete my collection.
