Thanks David. The Black Cockatoos are classed as "Vulnerable" and numbers are decreasing every year, all as a reult of humans destroying the planet. Here's a bit about them from the place where I was a voulnteers. https://blackcockatoorecovery.com/co...tail-cockatoo/

Excellent set Isac, particularly the last two. Those beaks are massive,

Thanks Alan. The beaks really are very strong. Those honky nuts are very tough and they munch away on them like they're a soft cone.
