Sweet sounding song those buggers have isn't it? :-)
Thanks! Didn't see the black ones... :-( My in-laws don't understand my fascinations with the cockatoos "noisy buggers" is the usual comment). The thing is, we don't have anything close to the parrots that you guys have. The only parrot species in the US went extinct in the 1800s. So traveling to Oz and seeing all the parrots (and how close you can get to them!) is an awesome experience for a bird guy like me! -- Christian http://photography.skofteland.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
