very nice photo :) love the detail... take it your in aus :) hehehe :P that narrows you down to one of us ;) (yes am aus too) now back to your photo... love the focus and the blurred natural background , creates a nice mood i like how the tail also is blurred... giving the photo a sense of depth........ and now that ive run through some of my main likes... i can safely say that there aint that many dislikes at all ;) hehe actually truthfully speaking there is only one... and that has nothing to do with your photo
thats right you guessed it.... its the border... dont think its necessary here and if placed i cant say im a fan of the colour.... would like to see it not present but thats a personal opinion and no indication on your photo overall :)
but overall your photo is amazing and deffinitely deserves to be well placed !!! :)

Lovely shot, nice and clear. I would have liked the eye to be a lot clearer though... it seems a bit dark here. I love the texture of the feathers. Nicely exposed, effective blurred background. Shame the tail isn't in focus. 7

Nice composition.. lighting is a litttle dark, but the colors work. Not much dynamic or energy here in my eyes though, but definitely a subject that isn't captured often, around here. 7

curious the crop % of this.
nice and sharp - too much crop is bad though.

Intriging colours, especially in the background, which brings out the 'fall' mood out of the picture. Nice usage of shadows and highlights for the very dim colours of the picture. Its too bad for the blurry tail of the bird, which would've been more interesting "in-focus".

an excellent nature image. perfectly composed and very detailed. I particularly like how the bird's beak is slightly open.

I like the detail of this photo a lot. Makes me feel like I can reach right out and pet the bird. Nice photo. Clear, clean and crisp.

I always wondered what a Kookaburra looked like, now through the magic of DPC, I know. Or at least take your word for it!! Super focus and composition. The feather hanging from the bottom is a bit of distraction. Background DOF is perfect. Really nice shot.
