Sulphur-crested Cockatoos



The fruit in the garden has now all passed, the last of the apricots were eaten by the Red Wattlebirds, Crimson and Eastern Rosellas. But all is not over yet. The Suphur-crested Cockatoos have moved in to eat the apricot kernels which the other smaller birds could not open and eat. They only ate the soft flesh like we do. A carpet of split shells now lies below the apricot trees.
