    Sulphur-crested Cockatoo Playing

    I have often seen cockatoos playing. The enjoy hanging upside down and squawking. On electricity cables they sometimes spin round and round. I've seen playing with sticks.

    The Reward

    Although I love watching these birds I don't feed them because if it is stopped they become like naughty boys and can and will do a lot of damage to wooden sections of the house and verandah.

    Just dropping in.

    Actually a pair of these were giving a Raptor that was in the tree some grief. The Raptor just ignored them both.

    Dirty visitor

    This curious (and grubby) visitor popped in the other day with a few mates - 10 Sulphur-crested Cockatoos, a King Parrot, and an Eastern Rosella took shelter on my balcony from the drizzle. This one should have been staying out for a shower!

    I regularly used to see various parrots land in this thorny bush to chew the fresh green shoots. I just stood and waited for this Aussie Larriking, the cockatoo, to land for me.

    This delightful Cockatoo was feeding on seeds in the Royal National Park south of Sydney. I'd stopped for a break on the way back from the south coast of New South Wales where I'd been birding in the alpine heathlands. Details of what I saw there can be seen on my blog at...
