Outstanding capture Bea, I see you are getting the hang of your new camera.
I hope to catch up up on my BP comments soon. #2591775

Thanks John. Let's say I'm getting a few more better ones in amongst the many not so good ones! It's a great camera, even in my not so experienced hands.. #2592041

Great capture Bea.! It seems strange to me to see a Cockatoo in the wild, the only ones I see here are in cages as pets. #2595088

Thank you Kim. They're here in droves, screeching their heads off! Their wing span is really beautiful, with yellow colouring underneath. #2595294
