Red-tailed Black Cockatoo

The Red-tailed Black Cockatoo visit our town every year for a few months in summer.

It’s Autumn now (though you would hardly have known it until a couple of days ago – average temperature of about 26 degrees celcius in the middle of the day – it is just starting to cool down at night now). Now these beautiful cockatoos have gone elsewhere – if you know whereabouts, tell me 🙂

Here are some photos Andrew took a couple of months back. These birds are very smart and not too keen on humans (for good reason), so getting  a close-up shot is very difficult and those super duper lens are way too expensive 😦
