Australia has a spectacular range of parrots.

These Sulphur-crested Cockatoos also have sulpur underwings and they screech like banshees.

Also here are some Little Corellas in my yard. They peck at the bark at the top of a limb/trunk junction, killing it and opening up a hollow. Here the hollow behind them fills with water when it rains and they use it for a bath. An adjacent hollow isn't big enough yet for these guys but is of interest to other parrots.

Nice set. The cockatoos are hillareous to watch. Though when we stayed in Katoomba for a few days we found out how annoying they can be. Noisy past our bedtime and covered our hired auto with crab apples that they opened just to get the seed out.
