Sulphur Crested Cockatoo

Cacatua galerita

Description:

Big white bird with Yellow crest on the head. pinkish hue on the chest, black beak and black feet.

Habitat:

Near Paronella Park near a waterfall and a creek.

Notes:

The bird on the right was feeding the bird on the left. I could see it regurgitating food from its crop and putting it in the mouth of the other one. I first thought they were "kissing" as the bird on the left seemed to be a mature bird and had a full crest as well. (see last picture) But I guess they are feeding.
