Hi All,
I was visiting a friend out near Macs Reef Road and upon walking around
in
the casuarina stand she has saw a pretty unique and fascinating thing...

...a Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoo...completely invese (ie, black tail
flashes and completely yellow all over). Have any of you guys seen /
heard
of this thing happening in YTBC's or any other species before? I 'm
curious
to know how often this genentic mixup occurs (it complements the albino
brushtailed possum I've seen in tassie too!)

Cheers, Geoff.
