Shamelessly pinched from another board :D
Kookaburras or Ha Ha pigeons are great split open and grilled over the coals of a good fire. Bunyip stew is very popular around here, in the south east. just cut up the bunyip up and add to the pot with a good piece of hoop snake and some potatoes. And don't forget the Pavlova for desert.
