This issue was discussed on birding-aus about 6 weeks ago. It is apparently
not a Sulphur-crested Cockatoo but a similar species from an island north of

Forgive me if this is something that everyone but me already knows
about: 'Cockatoo perched in Renaissance painting forces rethink of
history. Discovery of an animal more closely associated with Sydney than 
Venice is leading to a revision of early trading networks' Oliver Milman,
