White tailed black cockatoo

A white tailed black cockatoo feasting on a firewood banksia cone whilst sitting on my bull banksia in Winter

I counted about 20 of them going through my trees, pruning as they went.

I picked up some banksia flowers they snipped off and put them in a vase

They do a a fair amount of damage, but gee it is worth it just to watch them 🙂

Bell’s rapids

Doing a practise run through Bell’s rapids
getting ready for the Avon descent, mid Winter

He has a big smile after getting through a tough part
and his comment was
“not bad for a sixety year old”
you cant argue with that 🙂

the photo before this one is in my gallery plus a few more
