Y’day morning, 1/5, c. 7.30 a.m. there was a horde of Yelow-tailed black cockatoos bleating high in the branches or our (5) v old eucs (Blakelei, sp?).
[Unfortunately our back neighbour has changed and the new people have a tabby that’s driven out our beloved magpie family, + the supported since chickhood grey butcherbird + all the v small birds out of our long-standing haven- garden:L consequently lerp infestation is worst for a long time.

There are some at the ANBG right now, next to the cafe – one of them has not stopped pleading for food for the last half hour

There have been 10-16 at the ANBG for the past several weeks each time I've visited. At least half of them have been begging young.

I noted 3 beautiful yellow tail black cockatoos flying over the paddock near my place in North Watson this morning heading straight for our mountain. So graceful and stunning. They are my #1 favourite bird!!!!!!!!!
Then I saw them again a little later on lapping around the same area...
Very happy start to the day!!!
2 gang gangs in the lower part of Mt Majura on Wed morning as well.
