I was riding home along the Yarra River Wed evening, about 5.00pm and a flock of Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoos were moving from tree to tree on the north side of the river, directly across from the Botanical Gardens. I'm pretty certain there were Yellow Tailed as although I was looking into the setting sun, I could see a lighter patch on their tails, and they were definitely black cockatoos.

How unusual is it for these cocky's to be in the city? I've never seen them before (but then, I'm new to birding!)

Cheers,
Liz Headland
