Connor Margetts, the proud human to Dacelo, a laughing kookaburra, decided to record the bird’s distinctive quality to see what it would sound like in slow motion. While the kookaburra is a relatively small kingfisher, the tone coming out of that slow motion laugh seemed like it belonged to a great ape of some sort, rather than from a little bird.
This is what Dacelo sounds like in real time at regular speed.
