The kookaburra is Australia's most famous bird, mainly inhabiting the eastern part of the country. It belongs to the kingfisher family but generally does not like to catch fish. Instead, it hunts invertebrates and some small vertebrates. The word Kookaburra comes from the word guuguubarra derived from the Wiradjuri language, a group of Aboriginal people (indigenous Australians). This word resembles the famous laugh of the Kookaburra, which is an icon of the Australian morning wake-up call. Before sunrise, you can hear the characteristic trill - this laugh resembles a hysterical human chuckle. The Kookaburra coin series began in 1990 at The Perth Mint and is the longest-running in the mint's history. Each year it features a new artistic design and always becomes a bestseller.
