Banjo and Clancy - Laughing Kookaburras
Banjo and Clancy came to us from the Adelaide Zoo just two days out of the egg.
They were tiny and featherless when they arrived at Raptor Domain. Leeza hand-raised them, even setting her alarm clock for 2 O’clock in the morning to ensure they were OK for the first few weeks.
Banjo and Clancy were first thought to be boys but after their first malt it became obvious they were both girls. The brown feathers at the base of the tail did not turn blue as is with males.
Banjo and Clancy are a Children’s Favourite
