At around the evening of 4 September 2024 at Blackburn Park (an oval) in Ouyen, we spotted a Pink Cockatoo flying and calling loudly over the oval. We followed it in our car and saw it perched on a wire. At the time, we also heard another cockatoo in a tree. The other Cockatoo was discovered in a tree hollow. These photographs are of the second Cockatoo from the tree hollow. We were not fortunate enough to photograph the Cockatoo with its crest opened. Maybe next time.
