Sulphur Crested cockatoo

The Sulphur-crested Cockatoo is a large white parrot. It has a dark grey-black bill, a distinctive sulphur-yellow crest and a yellow wash on the underside of the wings. Sexes are similar, although the female can be separated at close range by its red-brown eye (darker brown in the male). This is a noisy and conspicuous cockatoo, both at rest and in flight. Young Sulphur-crested Cockatoos resemble the adults.

Cockatoos, along with some parrots, have the most evolved brains in all birds. They became easily habituated among people, and can imitate all sorts of noises, including human words. Listen carefully to see if you can recognise Lone Pine’s cockatoo conversations.

Sulphur-crested cockatoos are highly social and monogamous breeders, with pair bonds lasting many years, sometimes for life.

Recognisable by their curved beaks and showy crests, cockatoos communicate using vocalisations and body language, often raising their crests in greeting, excitement or alarm

Feeding and diet(sulphur crested cockatoo)

The Sulphur-crested Cockatoo’s normal diet consists of berries, seeds, nuts and roots. It also takes handouts from humans. Feeding normally takes place in small to large groups, with one or more members of the group watching for danger from a nearby perch. When not feeding, birds will bite off smaller branches and leaves from trees. These items are not eaten, however. The activity may help to keep the bill trimmed and from growing too large.

Communication

The most common call is a distinctive loud screech, ending with a slight upward inflection.
