Little Corella Cacatua sanguinea. Little Corellas like to make use of the power line that spans Hood’s Lagoon in Clermont, Queensland. It’s like a circus routine as they jostle each other for space.

This pink and grey native parrot stretching its wings in the early morning sunlight is a fine example of Cacatua roseicapilla (Galah) , quite common throughout Australia from the suburbs of cities to the dry, hot red centre. It was photographed high in a dead tree on a property in Wauchope , NSW, Australia, on a spring day in glorious light. Milady Fuji was pushed to her 300mm 10.7x zoom limit as I craned my neck looking up at the dead tree’s highest branches. (Oh for a nice big birding lens!) Fuji S9600: 1/320sec @ f/6.4, Auto Focus, Hand held but supported by a fence post. / Lightroom 1.1 & Photoshop CS3.

Photograph taken in Rhodes, Sony Cybershot, August 3 2009. The Blue-eyed Cockatoo, Cacatua ophthalmica, is a large, approximately 50 cm (20 in) long, white cockatoo with an erectile yellow crest, a black beak, dark grey feet, and a light blue rim of featherless skin around each eye, that gives this species its name. Both sexes appear very similar. Some males have a dark brown iris and some females have a reddish brown iris, but this small difference may not always be reliable as a gender indicator. It is easily mistaken for the Yellow-crested and Sulphur-crested Cockatoos, but has a more rounded crest with more white to the frontal part, and a brighter blue eye-ring. The Blue-eyed Cockatoo is endemic to lowland and hill forests of New Britain in Papua New Guinea, and it is the only cockatoo in the Bismarck Archipelago. Like all cockatoos and many parrots, the Blue-eyed Cockatoo can use one of its zygodactyl feet to hold objects and to bring food to its beak whilst standing on the other foot; nevertheless, amongst bird species as a whole this is relatively unusual. Formerly classified as a species of Least Concern by the IUCN, it is suspected to have become much rarer in recent times than was assumed previously. Consequently it was uplisted to Vulnerable in 2008. The most successful captive breeding program for Blue-eyed Cockatoos is at Chester Zoo / / / My zazzle gallery has a premium range of gifts that are suitable for people of all ages and tastes: an eclectic collection of unusually imaginative, hip and sometimes beautiful designs.
