Fantastic photo Di. Please could you add to it by stating where you spotted this (the kind of place) under 'habitat'. We have dry sclerophyll forests here -fairly open where we find the yellow-tails but I am sure that's not the case up there. Would love to know. Thanks.

Welcome Di. Superb shot. Do these babies make a crazy noise when being fed like most of our cockies?
