About the bird:
Major Mitchell's Cockatoo (Lophocroa leadbeateri), also known as Leadbeater's Cockatoo or Pink Cockatoo, is a medium-sized cockatoo restricted to arid and semi-arid inland areas of Australia.

With its soft-textured white and salmon-pink plumage and large, bright red and yellow crest, it is generally recognised as the most beautiful of all cockatoos. It is named in honour of Major Sir Thomas Mitchell, who wrote "Few birds more enliven the monotonous hues of the Australian forest than this beautiful species whose pink-coloured wings and flowing crest might have embellished the air of a more voluptuous region".

I have waited for a long time when he will show us this beauty.

I have other shots here and here.

bonjour
de jolies couleurs et de bons details dans le plumage.
l'oiseau ressort tres bien sur le BG mais je trouve dommage de lui avoir coupé les plume de la crete.

Hi Biswarup,
Wonderful macro shot. Superb colours and sharpness. Excellent DOF and POV. The black BG makes the shot even prettier. Very nicely composed. Kudos.

Hi Biswarup

Beautful shot of this great looking Cockatoo, I like the POV and the pose with the eye contact, really good detail too, the colours are superb with the whites and pinks looking really good against the Black BG.
