Laughing, of course (but he's LOUD, and the dogs sing along). He's also a bit of a runt as kookaburras go -- about half the size of the bruiser wild variety -- but for a bird of prey he makes a surprisingly good pet. He knows who his mob is and the dogs don't bother him, and he likes being petted. He'll actually come over and watch what we're doing, and he chatters when Mom is working in the kitchen.
The downside is that he eats live mice. Mom chooses to do something else when Albert is being fed. He'll eat worms and insects, and sometimes raw meat depending on his mood, but he definitely prefers live mice.
