Kookaburras are in many areas the apex (or close to apex) predators and also intelligent. Once convinced you're a big lumbering food dispenser that isn't a threat to their safety, and that they can easily escape from in the event of danger arising, they'll trust you and not be afraid of you anymore and even become affectionate over time.
My girlfriend found a Blue-Winged Kookaburra that had been kicked out of the nest before she had feathers or opened her eyes. We raised her and released her in the backyard. She found a nesting tree just down the river that we could see from our back stairs. After a year she had a boyfriend and would bring each year's babies to the backyard for food. She and the bubs were so comfortable with us that they would fly onto our arms. Wonderful experience.

Let's be glad they mainly only live in a country where wildlife is treated so good. can't imagine a lot of them surviving the monster humans of europe or the US
Only in Australia would y'all just look at birds that have legit pecked people's eyes out and go "Nah yeah mate let's give em a hug" I love you guys so much
If that's actually true, that's possible of any bird. I'm sure It's happened to some people from other birds as well. It would be very rare for that to even happen! It's not like their out for blood.
I think you're thinking of Magpies. They are known to swoop people, and are very territorial and protective of their young if you walk through their area, but they don't go for pecking out your eyes. Quite the oposite, if they see anything that resembles eyes they will swoop from the other direction. If you put a pair of sunglasses on the back of your head and a pair on you're eyes there's a better chance they will leave you alone.👍🇦🇺
Ooh, an astute bird. Hole in hand - food there? Open hand, no food. Hole in hand, presented. Why you do this, there's no food! I was impressed with that.
if you feed wild animals they will always hang around your house and if you be around them while they're eating they will become used to you being there and you can build a friendship to the point of them letting you hold them like this fella has. I love to see it people taking care of wild life.

I've never hugged a bird but there was a little house sparrow stuck inside a place I was working one day. It managed to get in through the doors we had propped but kept flying into the windows trying to get out. So I slowly approached it, cupped it in my hands and carefully held onto it while my buddy got a picture before it slipped away and flew off. Very cool experience and I appreciate the little guy not pecking or biting at me like I fully expected it to do. On a closer look a the picture, it looked like it may have had an injured wing or just an injury in general, but it seemed to fly just fine
I have the same bond with one of the eleven Magpies that visit us all day, everyday. She snapped her leg in two after being caught up in a pine tree. Little Maggie pops in the house and announces herself with a massive warble. We also have Kookaburras, Tawny Frogmouths and massive Owls all drop in to say hi regularly.

There was an old phone commercial in my country were an elementary kid presented what a Kookaburra is using his Mom's laptop connected to the internet. Back then, acetate sheets for slides was still in use.
Kookaburras are my favourite of our birds, but the nearest I've been to one is about six feet away as it sat on a post in a park I walk in regularly. This was great.
