Red Tailed Black Cockatoo
The Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo is often seen in large flocks, though it also occurs in pairs and trios.
It is an active, noisy and conspicuous species which is mainly arboreal, spending much of the day feeding.
At sunset, flocks of this species are often seen flying high, returning from feeding areas to roosts in large trees along the banks of rivers or streams. T hey may be less wary while feeding than at other times, and generally do not allow a close approach by an observer, readily taking flight and screeching loudly.
