A single male this morning around 8, eatings plums from a tree nr the cricket nets.
Not surprisingly, bearing in mind the size of its beak, it was delicately picking at the flesh of the fruits. Cockatoos feeding in the same tree crunch down on the fruit, the flesh falls away and then they crack the stone and extract the kernel
to eat.
