Our not very brave Labradoodle went racing down to the banana patch this morning. As luck would have it, I had a suitable lens on! This very confident Cockie stared her down, fluffed up, spread her wings and chased her off. Poor Aggie came inside looking a little miffed. We know Cockatoo's as flying bolt cutters, so I think the dog made the right choice, but was an interesting encounter to witness.
What a truly wonderful photo of this gorgeous bird! I love that they can be so fearless! Must tell Pam @pamknowler that her pups would lose their minds with one of these in the yard! Add too it, they could probably mimic a cat's meow!!!
