In my opinion, a thoroughly charming write - the entire presentation is warm and moves smoothly in gently rhyming verse - complies fully with the prompt - best of luck in the contest...

You have made excellent use of all your syllables in this appealing haiku. Nature's creatures are putting on a show for us observers, who are in amazement over them.

Comment from Gail Denham
Nice poem. Neat picture. Amazing different animals and birds in Australia. Always liked the sound of this bird's name. They're kind of cute. Thanks for sharing some of your wildlife.

What a great poem about the Kookaburra! As a child, I learned a song about this interesting bird. Enjoyed your haiku, which you formatted nicely in lowercase. Loved that picture!
Another form that I've been taught here is that the title should be the first line like this:

I enjoyed your poem. Your art choice plus well-chosen words pair nicely. I like the alliteration of 'w'. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Jan

Comment from Mark D. R.
Great to watch nature to inspire your writing!
I especially like the 5-7-5 Haiku format.
Minor nitpick that does not change my review: IMHO this bird name does not need to be capitalized. It is your poetic choice to insert a comma or not after 'worms' or change to: "the prize: wiggly worms!" Otherwise, when we parse the sentence wriggly is the noun and worms becomes the verb LOL

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem. There is nothing else that birds want than a worm and a warm cozy nest to sleep at night. That is their only need in their lives and for the rest they trust God to provide for them.

You only get these birds in Australia, (at least in the Wild) laughing jackass is another name. This is an excellent haiku as an entry in this haiku poetry contest, well done, good luck, blessings Roy,

Thanks Roy, old M8 and you are correct in the name alternative for the kookaburra and in Australia there are many types of jackass and they all have different color and beaks. Cheers, Kev.
