Large white cockatoo found in wooded habitats in Australia, New Guinea, and some of the islands of Indonesia. It has a distinctive yellow crest. Our bird is sitting on a tree branch, seen from behind. The birds head is turned to the right so we see it in profile with the yellow crest partially extended.
Calling all bird loving artists! This month's bird is the Sulphur-crested Cockatoo. 💛 Draw! Paint! Sculpt! We hope you'll join us. Posting day is July 30th.
