    This is a record shot only - crtique not required - Only as a Record of the sighting.

    Meet Mr & Mrs Gang Gang (Cockatoo)
    Happened across these two this afternoon - gorgeous birds and one that I had not seen previously and was on my wish list - this photo does not do them justice.

    As they spend most of thier time high up in the tree's getting a shot is going to be tricky. Hmmmm think I need a Ultralight aircraft or something LOL :)


    *** Birds Australia reports that this the first recorded sighting at this site!!

    Congrats Lance. Beautiful birds. I have a bear eye cockatoo that's about 26 years old and he's a pain in the ???
    Had to give him to an uncle because I couldn't stand the noise.

    Nice birds, do you know where the name (Gang-Gang) is coming from?

    Cheers, Ilija

    I hope you have a chance to make justice to them. I should be pretty excited if I were in your shoes!
