Re: Unusual Galah

"Sometimes being flogged off as 'apricot' cockatoo or galahs to some unsuspecting buyer. Unfortunately some people find these crossed birds more attractive than their natural plumage colourations and hold no quams about breeding, selling or buying them for the pet trade."

An interesting comment.  I'm guessing this is more a reflection on ones views about keeping birds as pets rather than the attractiveness of the bird itself.  This could equally apply to people being more attracted to certain breeds of dog rather than the ancestral beast or to different cultivars of rose, or other flower, than the wild form.
