[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
From Bird Park-Kuala Lumpur
The lovely Moluccan Cockatoo is quite rare in its native habitat in Indonesia. As a pet it becomes quite attached to its owner. This is a large species and needs a lot of freedom out of its cage and a lot of attention. It has a loud voice and can be quite vocal at times. It is one of the most beautiful of the cockatoos and has lovely peach-colored plumage.

18 to 22 inches long Life Span 40+ years with proper care.

Good detaills and sharpness on this one.
i like that it's holding on to something, a carrot perhaps?
Love the colors throughout.. and on the parrot as well.
Good shot.
