Description

A visitor to our garden, this beautiful Sulphur-crested Cockatoo visited our Bauhinia tree to feast on the many seed pods. We see a large variety of bird life in our garden and we regard this as a real privilege.

A good full framed picture of this good looking bird. We have 3 of these visitors calling in a couple of times a week. They call out to let us know they have arrived. Hope you & Caroline have a great Christmas & New Year. #10927017
