| Comment | Double-backward Somersault. Cockatoos are well-known for their acrobatic performances both in the air and hanging from a perch. The bird in the frame had just completed a backward somersault, which I was too slow to capture, and then it immediately went into another back-flip which I was lucky enough to record. The bird's exuberance is obvious as it tumbles through the air screeching to its friends "look at me... look at me". | ||||||||||||||||||
