Cone dropper.

This fellow was having the time of his life breaking off pinecones and dropping them on unsuspecting walkers on the track this afternoon.

Cheeky devil. Good photos - cockatoos are such characters.

Like the first one most,but both are good.They can be quite accurate when they`re bombing unsuspecting walkers.

Great photos SS ..... cockies must have a penchant for pine cones .... we came across several in a pine tree out the back of Tumut feasting on the young cones last year ..

Love the first one seaslug, good control of the exposure and good detail.

Well done SS, black birds are tricky to photograph, especially when they are bombing you.
Don't think I've ever seen a yellow tailed black cockatoo in real life.
