You asked about wild birds in our back yards. Here are the 200 cockatoos who just this second arrived on mass in my backyard.    Pics were taken into the sun, so quality not great. And I'm a ten minute walk from downtown Sydney CBD. |

Wow, very beautiful and so many of them. Here one costs around 1000 UK Pound.

Wow Stace, that is amazing!  We have Monk Parakeets here that occasionally fly over squawking. They did so on the first day I got budgies - perhaps they knew where I was going..  |

When they arrived they sounded like a King's trumpet fanfare, flying down the street in squadrons. Those big trees they settled in have red berries in them. They mooched about up there dropping hundreds of berry stones down on the tin roofs of the terraces below. Sounded like machine gun fire.
