CrazyCresties Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) I think it was Frodo's mum who mentioned recently we should maybe start a 'Bird' photo thread as there are a few of us taking bird shots, so here it is :D I look forward to seeing everyone's additions to the thread :) I'll kick it off with some shots of the Short-billed, or Carnaby's Black Cockatoo, which we have been privileged to have hanging around where I live a lot recently. I just love these birds, their call makes my heart sing :) http://www.wwf.org.au/our_work/saving_the_natural_world/wildlife_and_habitats/australian_priority_species/black_cockatoos/carnabys_black_cockatoos/ The endangered Carnaby’s black cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus latirostris) is one of just two species of white-tailed black cockatoo on Earth. The other is the Baudin’s black cockatoo, and they are both found only in the Southwest Australia Ecoregion. Full set here http://flic.kr/s/aHsjH6PkVD :) Edited August 1, 2013 by CrazyCresties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyCresties Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Nice shots FM, let's see some more :D A colourful one from me - I suspect an escaped pet as I think it's a King Parrot which are from the east coast and not WA? It was in a tree in our garden this evening and just got a few shots before it flew off :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
