A flock of Red Tailed Black Cockatoos feasting on the fruit of Beach Almond trees. With a distinctive cry, you’ll always hear these fellows before you see them.

We normally don’t get the yellow tailed down here but the other day I saw a flock feasting on pine nuts in the trees outside the Woolies supermarket, so there ya go.

We have a huge amount of yellow tailed black cockies around at the moment, decorating all the pine trees and native bushes near home. I love their cries.

I always think what must first settlers have thought of our weird and wonderful screeching birds and strange wildlife.

A colourful and noisy prison, but better than being crammed in a hulk in the Thames.
