Thanks again Craig The tree was full of them but most of them flew away when we got close.
Rich Hi. They are VERY noisy!! You couldn't hear yourself think when they started. They do make nice pets, but I don't think you can beat seeing them in the wild where they should be. - Sometimes though they are huge pests to the farmers and they love to chew bits off peoples weatherboard (like aluminum siding but made of wood) houses.
Thank you Arturo

Anne Chsanfino Tamas Billy* & Paul Thank you all so much for the complements. These two fellows stayed put while the other flew off and dive bombed us. These weren't too miffed - 'cause their crests are still down. It is nice Anne to see all these lovely creatures flying free. I used to be happy when I saw a Robin at home. I still get goosebumps when I see Budgies flying around in flocks here or I can feed the Parrots by hand. It is very nice.

This tree must be call it the tree of the cockatoos", Palmina. Besides this tender couple there is other one who has hidden to not appear in the photo. It is a luck to enjoy these beautiful birds fluttering around you. In Spain there are called "cockatoos" the old women made up in excess.
Un abrazo, Arturo.
