The term 'Birds from Down Under' refers to two species of birds native to Australia, the emu and the kookaburra. Emus are large, flightless birds that can reach up to 6.2 feet in height and weigh up to 90 pounds. They are the second-largest living bird by height, after the ostrich. Kookaburras are a type of kingfisher that are known for their distinctive call, which sounds like loud, echoing laughter. They are found throughout Australia and New Guinea. Both species are iconic symbols of the Australian outback and are popular attractions for tourists visiting the country.
