Cleared for landing

Tried to capture the black cockatoo in flight to show his tail...but this is the best I could come up with. It is so hard to catch a bird in flight!!

[Tracey]

Fabulous capture love it

[Nikki C]

Fantastic capture of these beautiful birds

[Francoise]

This is very dramatic -- more than flight would be. I fear for those soft pines, which are in great contrast to the fearsome birds ( my first thought was birds of prey!)

@lynnilou @darthkitty @francoise Thanks for the words of encouragement. They are a noisy bird but I have only ever seen 10 here so the impact is quite low. And yes, they do destroy the pines but they are not a bird of prey. In fact they are quite timid. Thanks :)

[Nita]

Great timing, you got his form very nicely.

[Gena Pegg]
