We have a really large flock of cockatoos that live around our area. This old guys goes down the park every afternoon and feeds them bread. There are dozens of them that come from everywhere to have a feed.

The cool thing is that even if the guy is not there, if they see you walking through the park, they all come to see if you have food. They sit in the trees around you waiting for food, sit next to you on the ground, and follow you. It makes it pretty easy to get some good photos.

I’ll have to post some when I get home.

I used to feed them off my back deck, until they started to rum amok!!!!!

Every now and then, there’s a solo one that comes down, and we give him a slice of bread or somethin!!!!! I don’t want his mates to crash our place again though!!!!!

Yeah, I know what you mean about them trashing the place. A friend of mine’s mum gets a lot of Rosella’s around her house, so she started to put little tins of strawberry jam on the balcony to attract them.

Now she gets HEAPS of them covering the balcony, and the place looks like a bomb hit it. It’s gone from nice dark stained timber decking, to a kind of painted white deck.  LOL

The shite wasn’t the thing!!!!!

The Sulphur Crested just absolutely run amok!!!!! They pull clothes off the line, break branches, take single bites out of fruit then spit it out, chew bits off any timber structures!!!!!

They are trouble makers!!!!!  LOL

We have plenty of Lorikeet and Possum shit on our verandah as it is, probably wouldn’t notice any more!!!!!  sick
