There used to be (may still be) a yellow YTBC in the Wamboin/Sutton area, just
to the north of Canberra. Some photos are on the Canberra Ornithologists Group
website here:

> I would have to check my journal for the details but I was driving on the
> Western Highway near Ararat-Beaufort in Victoria when I saw what I first
> thought to be a Sulphur-crested Cockatoo flying with two YTBCs. However,
> the shape was wrong and as they flew closer I could see that all three were
> YTBCs. The yellow bird wasn't completely yellow but had thin black margins
> around each feather.

> The one on your blog has very different colouration to the one I saw.
