Belconnen is a good place to see Yellow-tailed Black-Cockatoos at
the moment - especially the Ginninderra Ck corridor where lots of
casuarinas, wattles and eucalypts are fruiting. I've attached a map
of my sightings of YTBCs during May (annotated with flock size).

At 09:30 today while watching
Sulphur-crested Cockatoos gorging on our White Cedar berries
– they must have the digestion of a land-fill billy goat – I
saw a sizeable flock of Yellow-tailed Black-Cockatoos
approaching from the south before flying east then west
towards me and finally swinging through 180 degrees again to
settle on an easterly bearing. Anyhow, all this ambivalence
allowed me to form a reasonable estimate of numbers, I’ll
bet 25.
