A photo is attached, I think, but for anyone who can't view it, the bird had a white chest, white head apart from a black band around the eyes and black wings. The beak was similiar to a woodpeckers but as far as we can tell it is not a woodpecker. It was quiet plump and about the size of a pigeon.
Hope to hear from anyone who has more information than we do!

This is a Kookaburra and is obviously an escapee. You had me going there for a moment.
Still I would like you to tell me if it was free flying or if it was a captive bird
Here is a link to a photograph of one.
