![Silver Note Writer [C: 9 W: 0 N: 20]](http://i1.treknature.com/misc/n-n-s.gif) (66) | I fell in love with Cockatoos when I found Australia in all its wonders. It was a dear aussie friend who taught me the song "dance cocky dance..." that could make some cockatoos (in captive ones) nod their heads as if they are dancing. But I'm not entertained as much as I'm sad when I see these intelligent critters cooped up in cages.
This species is named Little Corella. Apparently, this is one of the best species that can be taught to talk and do tricks! They are considered to be one of the best talkers of all Cockatoos and are also famous for being able to bite their way out of wire cages ¤yipee to freedom¤
In the wild, Little Corellas eat seeds, insects, bulbs and fruit. Little Corellas are very vocal in the wild and do not have a set home range; rather, they are nomadic. From experience, you can often spot Little Corellas on open grassfields feeding (for a long time if they're undistrubed) and in groups too.
To distinguish them form other species, look for slight pink at the base of feathers mostly hidden on crown and slight pink lore. Even more obvious is the bare grey eye-ring more extensive beneath eyes. |
