On May 14 David Milburn suggested this bird may be a Yellow-crested
Cockatoo (C. sulphurea). It is presently hanging out in
Lyneham doing the usual excavation of onion weed bulbs. Does this
close-up help with ID? The photo has not been enhanced in anyway.
Notice the colour wash on the cheeks also.
Perhaps a simpler explanations is that its name is Julia.
