Inquisitive. Didn't realise it's just an Aussie thing
Actually it's used in a derogatory sense when someone should be minding their own business. But it's also used in jest

Or as a verb meaning to look (have a stickybeak = have a look). Every time we have non-Aussies on our tours we have to explain what it means, as we use it often (usually as the verb). Next we'll have to explain what a chook is!


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

They amuse me when they perch. They look like they are wearing boots.

Thanks for asking Inspeqtor! A chook (rhymes with book unless you're from northern England) is Gallus gallus domesticus (i.e. a chicken)!

Unless they are a turbo chook (a Tasmanian native hen). :-)

Absolutely amazing, Rob! Super nice work!

Outstanding capture of this Ruff, Jan! I don't think I've ever seen a photo of one before.

He appears to be a wascally wooking wabbit, Richard. Much like the one Elmer Fudd is always chasing after.:lol:
