A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Eolophus roseicapilla
Found throughout Australia, it is among the most common of the cockatoos. With its distinctive pink and grey plumage and its bold and loud behaviour, it is a familiar sight in the wild and increasingly in urban areas.
I took this pic in my yard when several Galah dropped down for a feed from the plant pictured. Not sure what it's called, but it's a pest-weed, ground-cover, that has thousands of puffy white blossoms these wild birds love.
Beautiful flock birds - there'd be a few thousand around this area today because of permanent fresh-water, a multitude of various seed, &+, this is a vegetable & fruit growing area...
