Woman Rescues Wild Kookaburra, It Jumps On Her For Some Cuddles (Video)

Personally, we think that birds are so incredibly underrated - all birds but especially kookaburras. Kookaburras are just so, so, so friggin' cute. They are fluffy, they are round, they are adorable, and they are so obviously curious about humans. Every time we see a video about a kookaburra, we feel the need to share it with you guys to spread the love. Whether it's a video of a person just hanging out with some kookaburras on their couch, or a video of a wild kookaburra coming in for a friendly visit, or a video of two wild kookaburras coming inside to wait out a storm.

They are not at al afraid of humans. In fact, when an Australian checked if kookaburras will let her pet them, the answer was a resounding yes. Heck, kookaburras will even let you pet their bellies if they like you enough, and this lady is not just liked by them, they obviously absolutely love her. Especially this kookaburra, who this wonderful human, in a previous video, saved from drowning. Clearly, the bird was thankful and wanted to show it in the most awwdorable way possible - by coming in for a cuddle.
