[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
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".

Hi Biswarup
Impressive shot. You have eye contact from both these beautiful birds. Nicely composed, good exposure and nicely saturated colour. TFS.
Hello Biswarup,
I like a lot your picture here.
Very good composition, beauty pink tones in the couple of birds, nice texture in the branch and in the background.
Great the point of view.
Congratulations,
JM
