Young Torresian Crow being fed by a parent

This was AFTER the young crow stuffed itself on food from all of the people having BBQs nearby!

The image is quite noisy, as they were under a very shadowy tree canopy.

Shorncliffe, Queensland, Australia

I went for a delightful bird-watching walk around Jerrabomberra Wetlands today and got five new birds! I'm really enjoying my new #Photography habit, collecting #AustralianBirds is a bit like pokémon, but other people will talk about them with you! List: inaturalist.ala.org.au/observations...

A Yellow-tailed black cockatoo enjoying some banksia seeds.

Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia

#birds #australianbirds #WildOz #parrots #nature #cockatoos
A large cockatoo native to the south-east of Australia measuring 55–65 cm (22–26 in) in length. Its plumage is mostly brownish black and it has a prominent yellow cheek patch. As it has a black beak and pinkish-red eye-rings, it is a male. It is in a banksia bush with late afternoon yellow light behind. In one of its claws is an old banksia woody fruit, which it is processing for seeds.
