Pops, you would have so much fun with your camera in Australia! Those birds are rosellas. They travel in herds(? ) and make a loud, squawking noise that you can hear almost for miles!
Ohhhhhhhh Rosellas! They breed them as pets here!

Yep, cockatoos are very very smart. Its funny that in Australia you see them as wild birds, while in the US, they're pets and nothing but pets! Cockatiels are Australian too. Do you ever see wild tiels flying around? I wonder what Captain's Jo thinks of her wild cockatoo cousins.......since she's a cockatoo herself!

If I ever go to Australia, I'm sure I'd come back with over 1000 pictures!
