Pink Cockatoo

Pink Cockatoo
The Pink Cockatoo (also known as a "Major Mitchell" cockatoo) is an uncommon resident of the dryer areas of inland Australia. It has recently been designated as "vulnerable" and I was delighted to find the pair in these images (see also PiPs). This one seems excited to have found some Paddymelons and is showing its coloured crest.

Those fruit are called Paddymelons, Fred. They were introduced to Australia in the 1800s, possibly as camel food. Related to cucumbers and watermelons. Not edible by people, but birds love them and now found throughout the inland dryer areas of Australia.

What a pretty bird. The crest reminds me a head-dress as worn by Native Americans.
