So usually I have black Cockatoos fly over my house one ever 2/3 weeks usually 2 or 3
But this morning there was a huge noise I got out of bed looked out the front door and sighted a yellow Cockatoo on the fence I ran to get my camera which was still all setup for the macro I did the night before hoping it would stay on the fence. I went out with the camera as quietly as I could because the black cockies are quite shy birds around here...to find that I had 20+ black cockies in the front garden!!!! OMG fighting over the bird bath..one in my water trough, several in the bushes. a large number on the tree, a few slitting along the fence line and they were flying past my front door at no higher than 2 meters off the ground
the light was quite poor this morning and I had to shoot at 200 to get them (as I couldn't get close enough but I managed to snap some shots I'm so pleased this is a rare occasion (I'm pleased I just had my camera batteries charged because usually they are not)
