CommentI watched this female Gang-gang Cockatoo and her friends feed for about 40 minutes. So the photo is a momento of a special experience. I was particularly happy with this shot because it clearly shows the head of the bird with the small crest, the red frills the bird has and its dexterity, holding the twig of Hawthorne berries in its claw while she eats the fruits.
