I'm a massive bird lover, so I'm sure I wouldn't mind the sound of either of them if they also lived here. I especially love listening to kookaburras on video footage, they make me laugh just like laughing babies make other people laugh 
and they also look super cute.
Magpie swooping does sound scary though - but it also led me to a discovery when I was looking up related information a few years ago: upon hearing about it so often, I was wondering why they never do this over here, they just rattle around (that's what we usually call the sound they make) - and upon research I realised that what I thought is a magpie over there, is, in fact, not what we call a magpie over here. Similar in colour, but a different bird

So I can, so I can
