Mystery solved! 🔎
If you guessed that photo was the beak of a Laughing Kookaburra, you are correct!
Laughing Kookaburras are named after their bold and distinctive “laugh” that sounds like a human laughing! Their unique call is used to communicate with each other as well as establish territory. They use their special beaks to hunt insects, snakes, small mammals and lizards. 🦎

Up next for Veterinary Technician Week, we are eager to introduce Kaylin!
Kaylin is one of our Senior Technicians here at Texas Avian and Exotic Hospital. From a young age, Kaylin has been passionate about veterinary medicine, particularly the care of exotic species. Her very first exotic pets, a pair of sugar gliders, sparked a lifelong dedication to animal husbandry and fueled her desire to provide exceptional care for all creatures, great and small.
Kaylin believes that every animal deserves compassionate, and competent veterinary care, even the tiniest patients. Today, she especially enjoys working with parrots, whose vibrant personalities never fail to inspire her.
We are so grateful for Kaylin and all of our wonderful veterinary technicians. Texas Avian and Exotic Hospital wouldn’t be the same without your hard work and care!

In celebration of Veterinary Technicians Week, we’re excited to introduce our incredible team members over the next few days! These are the dedicated individuals who keep our hospital running smoothly and provide the very best care for your pets. We truly couldn’t do what we do without them.
Today, celebrating Amy, our amazing Technical Supervisor!
Amy loves all animals; from budgies to toucans, rats to rabbits, tiny lizards to giant snakes. If it hops, slithers, flies, or squeaks, Amy is a fan! Variety really is the spice of life when it comes to her love of the animal kingdom.
Amy began her journey in veterinary medicine over 10 years ago and has never looked back. Her passion for helping animals, supporting their people, and being a “voice for the voiceless” is what keeps her going every day. She especially loves advocating for her patients and finds the greatest joy when a sick animal recovers and gets to head home with their family.
A Fun Fact Amy would like to share about Curl-Crested Aracaris:
These quirky toucans get their “curl crested” name from the special feathers on top of their heads! They feel just like curling ribbon! While they’re beautiful and fascinating birds, they’re only a good fit for people with plenty of time, space, and fresh fruit to share.
A heartfelt thank you to Amy and all of our incredible veterinary technicians for being such an essential part of the Texas Avian and Exotic Hospital team. Your compassion, dedication, and hard work make everything we do possible.
