Some kookaburras checking out our campsite and seeing if we had any snacks for them. Taken recently during my Margaret River (south of Perth, Western Australia) trip in January 2010. Taken on my camera.

Um depends on your point of view. I quite like being woken up to them laughing, although if it happened too early, and every morning then yes it might become bothersome :P

XD Laughing... Good point! Here we have birds called Koels which make this ever-increasing-in-pitch "whoo-whoo!" noise, and people apparently really hate them...

Do kookaburras steal food, etc?

I've never personally had a kookaburra steal food, I think they prefer live lizards etc so not really interested in our stuff. It's the magpies that aren't liked too well in Australia - they swoop people during nesting season and can become really really annoying. The seagulls steal food out of people's hands if they're not careful, and crows/ravens (not sure which) used to steal people's lunches from their bags when I was in school lol.

Where are you from? Koels sounds german..

It's probably Malay? Comes from the noise it makes xD

Ohhh, magpies! 8DDD Over here the annoying birds are fat crows, fat pigeons and fat mynahs... but not really destructive. And apparently no seagulls within my region >:

From the bags! Very enterprising birds you have there! XDDD

Haha, that has to suck. My grandparents live in North Carolina and they have woodpeckers that would do the same thing.
