The cockatoos that come each day that I practice on are quite comical. No matter how many places there are to land they all want to land in the same spot. Even when they have landed they all want to go different ways so tracking can be erratic as well as working out who will take off or who just wants to sit there becomes a guessing game. :cheer:

And even then there can be a fight over a particular spot or two.

I take it that cockatoos are as common in your area as pigeons up here in North America? <smile>

Both nice shots, but I love the action captured in that second i9mage.

LOL, these guys make me laugh. They don't take life seriously, and are fun to watch as a result. Nice shots! You've captured their character, IMO. :)

Agree with Rudi Cheryl. You've caught their antics well
