Birds in my winter garden - part 7

Posted by
Stephen (Canberra, Australia) on 25 July 2016 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

Peekaboo! The same Sulphur-crested Cockatoo as you saw in my previous post. Here it is peeking over the edge of the gutter on my roof.

Cockatoos are very gregarious birds. However, beware if you have any exposed wood along your roof, eaves or window frames. Cockatoos delight in chewing on pieces of wood. A gang of Cockatoos around the bird feeder will end badly with the feeding dish knocked over and seed spilling on the ground. However individually or in pairs Cockatoos are generally a pleasure to see in the garden.

A beautiful portrait of this innocent looking bird. I don't think I could handle them eating my house.
